HOWMEMORYWORKS

1Memoryisthebrain'sabilitytoencode,store,andretrieveinformationrelatedtoprevious

experiences.Memoryisaflowofinformationthroughasystem,aprocessthatoccursintwo

stages:short-termandlong-term.Short-termmemoryreflectsanimmediatesensoryperception

ofanobjectorideathatoccursbeforetheimageisstored.Short-termmemoryenablesyouto

recallthefive-digitnumberofastreetaddressafterlookingitup,butwithoutwritingitdownor

lookingatthenumberagain.Ifyouneedtorecalltheaddressfrequently,itbecomesstoredin

long-termmemoryandcanberecalledseveralweeksafteryouoriginallylookeditup.Short-term

memoryandlong-termmemorycanbethoughtofasmemorystructures,eachvaryingastohow

muchinformationitcanholdandforhowlong.

2Memoryreliesontheabilitytoprocessandencodeinformation.Processingbeginswiththe

environmentalstimulithatyousee,hear,smell,taste,andfeel.Theseexperiencesareinitially

recordedinthebrain'ssensoryregister;whichholdsinformationjustlongenough(onetothree

seconds)foryoutodecidewhethertoprocessitfurther.Informationthatyoudonotselectively

attendtowilldisappearfromthesystem.However,ifyourecognizetheinformationas

meaningfulorrelevant,itissenttoshort-termmemory.Short-termmemorycanhold

approximatelysevenunrelatedbitsofinformationatatime.

3Short-termmemoryisoftencalledworkingmemorybecauseitholdsinformationthatyou

arecurrentlyworkingwith,suchasinformationneededtosolveaproblem,tolearnsomething

new,ortomakeadecision.Short-termmemorycanholdinformationforonlyabout20seconds.

Then,unlesstheinformationisprocessedfurther;itisquicklyforgotten.Forexample,ifyou

secondsbeforeyoufinisheddialing,youprobablywouldhaveforgottentherestofthenumberat

thatpoint.Unlessinformationinshort-termmemoryisprocessedfurther;itdoesnotmakeitto

memorizeinformationforlateruse,althoughsometimesitissimplytoholdinformationin

short-termmemoryforimmediateuse.Forexample,youmightaskastoreclerkforthelocation

ofanitemthatyouneed,thenrehearsethelocationsoyoucanfindtheiteminthestore.

Anotherprocessthatpromotesthetransfertolong-termmemoryistheassociationofnewdata

withdatapreviouslylearnedandstoredinlong-termmemory.Thus,ifyoualreadyknowsome

cardgames,itiseasiertolearnanewcardgamebecauseyouhave"cardsense"fromplaying

othergames.Stillanotherencodingprocessisnotingsomepatterninthematerial;forexample,

youmightrememberthezipcode12144bytellingyourselfthat12squaredis144.
