Types of Memory
Short
Term Memory
- Where sensory data is first
transmitted to for processing and
evaluation
- Aging impacts the depth of
processing that occurs in STM, sending
less to LTM
Types of Memory
Long
Term Memory
- Where STM is encoded for long-term storage
and future retrieval
How quickly and reliably we recall it depends on:
Activation: How long since we last used the
information.
Strength: How well we have practiced it
Archival Memory (a type of LTM)
- Used in the ultra-long term storage of
memories
