A cognitive psychologist is investigating a brain-damaged patient, Patient J, who has severely impaired auditory short-term memory (struggling to recall spoken words or letters) but completely normal visual short-term memory (easily recalling sequences of shapes or spatial arrangements).
Explain why Patient J's cognitive profile represents a limitation of the multi-store model of memory.
