Memory rehearsal is a term for the role of repetition in the retention of memories, e.g., working memory rehearsal tasks.
In the Baddeley's conceptualization of Working Memory, this ability comprises a central execute and two buffers. The phonological loop and the visual--spatial sketchpad. Both storage buffers are characterized by passive storage and rehearsal information. This rehearsal function has been associated with frontal networks such as Broca's area, (Garon, Bryson and Smith, 2008).
