George Miller is an Australian psychologist known for his groundbreaking work in cognitive psychology, particularly in the realm of memory. He is best known for his theory on the capacity of short-term memory, famously summarized in his 1956 paper "The Magical Number Seven, Plus or Minus Two," which suggests that the average number of objects an individual can hold in working memory is about seven. Miller also contributed to the development of the cognitive revolution in psychology, emphasizing the importance of understanding mental processes.
