Introduction According to information processing model, short term memory has a limited capacity to hold information (Atkinson & Shriffin, 1968). The span of short term memory is said to be limited to about seven items (+2) (Miller, 1956 as cited in Terry, 2000). Short-term memory is also an active memory where we do our active memory processing (Lefrancois, 2000). For this reason, several researches have called the short term memory the working memory store (Gordon, 1989). Working memory is important

According to researchers Gum is able to make your mental performance better (1). When you chew gum while taking tests and someone is watching you it helps you make you stay focused longer.

In the same study participants who didn’t chew gum did better in the beginning but had worse results in the end (2). In another previous study

Evaluate the evidence for the separation of declarative and non-declarative memory Long term memory is a place where we store all of the memories that for long period of time. Once the memory has been stored in the long term memory, it can last up from a few minutes to the rest of your life. The amount of how much a person can save in the long-term memory is infinite. There are two different kinds of memories, one of them is called declarative memory. Declarative memory is the ability to for example

Discuss the process of working memory including the areas of the brain associated with short-term memory and encoding. We received information to our amygdala, and then it’s passed to the hippocampus, which is where short-term memories are formed. The hippocampus forms short-term memories by encoding the new information, which means the hippocampus attempts to link the new sensory input to existing memory via pattern seeking (Willis & Mitchell, 2014). For example, an object is round and bounces

actively process task relevant information in mind over a short period of time. Working memory is very important in helping to meet the challenges of daily life and the performance of academic tasks. This is showing that working memory capacity is essential for the cognitive development throughout childhood. The aim of this study was to investigate the visuospatial working memory network in a relatively large sample of very preterm and term born children comparable for age,

dealing with my short-term memory, I would use the chunking method to categorize information to help me remember them better. In daily life I use maintenance rehearsal to remember things so this would be no different in this crime. Maintenance rehearsal is repeating the information so I would keep going over what happened in my head to make sure I remembered everything and remembered it correctly. If I keep repeating what happened in my head, then eventually it will be stored in my long-term memory.

Jean Piaget Intelligence Piaget was opposed to defining intelligence in terms of the number of items answered correctly on a so- called intelligence test. (Olson & Hergenhahn, 20090 To him intelligence is what allows an organism to deal effectively with its environment. Intelligence changes constantly because both the environment and the organism change constantly. Intelligence is a dynamic trait because what is available as an intelligent act will change as the organism matures biologically

next stage-short term memory (www.psychology.about.com/2012). An example of sensory memory would be a person smelling or tasting something that they did not like and being able to have a feeling of pleasure from the memory or a feeling of disgust because of the initial contact with the food or odor. Short-term memory also known as active memory, this is the process of information that we are aware of or are currently thinking about a certain thing. In language that is more common short-term memory
