Stages of Memory

Memory Encoding

When information comes into our memory system (from sensory input), it needs to be changed into a form that the system can cope with, so that it can be stored.

Three ways information can be encoded

1. Visual (picture)

2. Acoustic (sound)

3. Semantic (meaning)

Memory Storage

Most adults can store between 5 and 9 items in their short-term memory.

Information can only be stored for a brief duration in STM (0-30 seconds), but LTM can last a lifetime.

Memory Retrieval

Refer to getting information out storage

STM is stored and retrieved sequentially.

LTM is stored and retrieved by association.
