Answer: working memory

Explanation:

The human brain contains both the automatic system, which controls around 80% of our actions and the executive system, which manages the remaining 20% and needs a deliberate regulatory effort.

The executive function includes verbal working memory and non-verbal working memory that determine how much effort and what kind of activities are needed to adjust the way the brain works automatically.
