Information that is processed in the mind via pre-stored information in memory.

We often make the choice not to actively process information because we want to save time and effort. Therefore we are

Mental representations that are derived from prior experience and knowledge

Transforming sensory information into memory.

Creating a biological trace of the encoded information in memory, which is either consolidated or lost

Using the stored information in thinking, problem-solving and decision making.

The process by which information is encoded, stored, and retrieved

The memory of facts and events and refers to those memories that can be consciously recalled.

The memory of specific events that have occurred at a given time and in a given place.

Memory of general knowledge of facts and people, for example, concepts and schemas and it is not linked to time and place.

The unconscious memory of skills and how to do things.

The model is based on a number of assumptions. First, the model argues that memory consists of a number of separate locations in which information is stored. Second, those memory processes are sequential. Third, that each memory store operates in a single, uniform way. In this model, short-term memory (STM) serves as a gateway by which information can gain access to long-term memory. The various memory stores are seen as components that operate in conjunction with the permanent memory store (LTM) through processes such as attention, coding and rehearsal. You need to pay attention to something in order to remember information. According to this model, rehearsal is vital to keeping material active in STM by repeating it until it can be stored in LTM.

Memory related to different senses, such as hearing and vision

Memory assumed to be limited to around seven items (7+/-2) and its duration is normally about 6–12 seconds. Information is quickly lost if not rehearsed.

A vast storehouse of information. This storehouse is believed to be of indefinite duration and of potentially unlimited capacity, although psychologists do not know exactly how much information can be stored there. The material is not an exact replica of events or facts but is stored in some outline form

Ability to recall words at the beginning of the list because they had already been transferred to long-term memory

Ability to recall words that have just been spoken because they are still in short-term memory

This model suggests that STM is not a single store but rather consists of a number of different stores. Baddeley and Hitch observed in lab experiments that if participants perform two tasks simultaneously that both involve listening, they perform them less well than if they did them separately. They had also noticed that if participants performed two tasks simultaneously that involved listening and vision, there was no problem.

An attention control system that monitors and coordinates the operations of the other subordinate components of the memory system

The auditory component of STM

The visual component of STM

Temporarily holds several sources of information active at the same time, while you consider what is needed in the present situation. This means - auditory and visual information together, as well as information from LTM., your experience.
