The three processes of memory:

process #1: Enter the sensory register.

process #2: Enter the short-tern memory.

process #3: Enter the long-term memory.

What is sensory hyperactivity?

Sensory hyperactivity or distractibilty implies that people are continually "on the move" as far as concentration is concerned. Every sensory stimulus is so enticing/distracting to them, that they can do nothing but pay attention to it.
