The model proposed by Humphreys, Wiles, and Dennis is precise and -- w
ith its restricted set of functional characteristics -- successfully r
efines prior notions of memory. However, it provides limited novel ins
ights into basic underlying processes of human memory. Further, it doe
s not yet sufficiently (a) enlighten human neurobehavioral disturbance
s, nor (b) bridge nonhuman-animal research with human memory concepts.
