Short-Term Memory In Psychology
Short-term memory (STM) is a component of memory that holds a small amount of information in an active, readily available state for a brief period of time, typically a few seconds to a minute. It's often likened to the brain's "working space," enabling tasks like reasoning and language comprehension. STM's capacity is limited, often thought to be about 7±2 items. Information not rehearsed or processed can quickly be forgotten.| Simply Psychology
