The phonological loop and the visuospatial sketchpad are components of the working memory model proposed by Baddeley and Hitch. The phonological loop handles verbal and auditory information, while the visuospatial sketchpad deals with visual and spatial information, allowing these types of information to be processed independently. This means that it is possible to remember a list of words (using the phonological loop) while completing a maze (using the visuospatial sketchpad) simultaneously.
