sensory memory‚ it then proceeds to our short term memory (STM) where research has shown that we mainly encode information acoustically‚ our STM has a slightly larger capacity than our sensory memory‚ allowing us to hold roughly seven items (plus or minus two) we can hold these for up to 30 seconds at a time. If we rehearse the information in our STM‚ over and over again by using our rehearsal loop‚ we are able to transfer this information to our long term memory (LTM). Research has shown that we mainly

According to Atkinson and Shiffrin the multi-store memory has 3 distinctive stores; sensory registry‚ short term memory (STM) and long term memory (LTM). Information from the environment enters the sensory memory for 0.5 second‚ if the individual is paying attention this information will enter the STM‚ from there if the information is rehearsed it will be store into the LTM. Duration is how long the memory lasts‚ capacity is how much memory an individual can store‚ encoding is what format it is stores

It is then moved to their short-term memory through their working memory. Once it is stored in their short-term memory‚ the information is then encoded‚ consolidated‚ and stored in their long-term memory. The final step is retrieved. Retrieval of the information can be found through recognition memory‚ recall memory‚ or cued recall memory. Memory is a key component
