Memory vs. Brain

TYPES OF MEMORY

SENSORY MEMORY	SHORT-TERM MEMORY	LONG-TERM MEMORY
· the shortest-term element of memory · the ability to retain impressions of sensory information after the original stimuli have ended · It acts as a kind of buffer for stimuli received through the five senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch, which are retained accurately, but very briefly	· the ability to remember and process information at the same time · holds a small amount of information (typically around 7 items or even less) in mind in an active, readily-available state for a short period of time	· obviously enough, intended for storage of information over a long period of time

THE PROCESSES IN HUMAN MEMORY

PROCESS	EXPLAINATION
ENCODING	· crucial first step to creating a new memory
CONSOLIDATION	· stabilizing a memory trace after the initial acquisition
STORAGE	· more or less passive process of retaining information in the brain, whether in the sensory memory, the short-term memory or the more permanent long-term memory
RECALL/ RETRIEVAL	· more or less passive process of retaining information in the brain, whether in the sensory memory, the short-term memory or the more permanent long-term memory
