The episodic buffer integrates information from different sources (visual, spatial, and verbal) into a single, multi-dimensional episode or memory. In this scenario, the child uses the episodic buffer to integrate the sound of the letter k (verbal), the visual representation of the letter k (visual), and the recall of a character from a story (an episode).
