    Memory involves acquiring information through encoding, storing it in the brain, and later retrieving it. There are three types of memory according to the information-processing model: sensory memory, which briefly stores sensory information; short-term memory, which can hold a limited amount of information for a short period of time; and long-term memory, which can store vast quantities of information for many years. Sensory memory includes iconic memory for visual information lasting around 0.3 seconds and echoic memory for auditory input lasting 2-3 seconds.

    Memory

    Process by which information is:


    Acquired
    Encoding

    Stored in the brain


    Storage

    Later retrieved
    Retrieval

    Eventually (possibly) forgotten

    Information-Processing Model of Memory


    Computer as a model for our memory Three types of memory
    Sensory memory Short-term memory (STM) Long-term memory (LTM)
    Can hold vast quantities of information for many years

    Sensory Memory
    Stores all the stimuli that register on the senses Lasts up to three seconds
    Sensory
    Input Sensory Memory

    Two types

    Iconic memory

    Echoic memory (well come back to this)

    Visual Usually lasts about 0.3 seconds Sperlings tests (1960s)

    Sensory Memory
    Echoic memory
    Sensory memory for auditory input that lasts only 2 to 3 seconds

    Why do we need sensory memory?
