Cognitive psychologists subdivide short-term memory into two major components -- immediate memory and working memory. |
|

Squire
& Kandel; Memory |

|
Immediate memory refers to what can be held actively in mind that forms the
focus of current attention and that occupies the current stream of thought. |
|
0 |
Squire
& Kandel; Memory |
84 |
|
Capacity of immediate
memory is quite
limited (it can hold approximately 7 items), and unless its contents
are rehearsed, it
ordinarily persists for less than 30 seconds. |
|
0 |
Squire
& Kandel; Memory |
84 |
|
Ordinarily, information will
slip from your conscious mind within a few seconds, but
immediate memory can be extended in time and its
contents retained for many minutes if you rehearse
actively.
This extension
of immediate memory is
called working memory. |
|

Squire
& Kandel; Memory |

Working memory is an extension of immediate memory by rehearsing. |

An object or
fact can be represented
initially as immediate
memory, its representation can be sustained in working memory, and it can ultimately persist as long term memory. |

Immediate memory and working memory are best thought of as a
collection of temporary memory capacities that operate in parallel. |

One kind of
working memory, the phonological loop, is concerned
with language and temporarily stores spoken words and meaningful
sounds. |

layouts. |

are essential for performing tasks that require
holding information in mind for impending action, as well as for
retrieving information when memory is being

Frontal cortex and sensory
cortices work together
as a neuronal system to perceive information and then hold it in working memory for temporary use. |
|

Squire
& Kandel; Memory |

|
Frontal cortex receives sensory
information from upstream
cortical areas and then -- depending on
attention, motivation, and overall direction of behavior -- provides feedback to some subset of
these areas, directing them to hold information in
mind for impending action, for comprehension and
planning, or possibly for integration into long-term memory. |

Dorsal route
from area V1 forward to the parietal cortex is concerned with the locations of objects in space, the spatial
relationships between objects, and the computations needed to reach particular locations in space. |

Each station along the ventral and dorsal streams contributes in a specialized way to the processing of information
necessary for visual perception. Some areas analyze color, others analyze direction of motion, still others analyze depth or orientation. |
