It has been a long time myth that goldfish have the shortest attention span, but their memory can span up to three months and are even known to be able to recognize time. Hamsters are now being considered to have one of the shortest memory spans.

What is the conversion of short-term memory to long-term memory called?
The conversion of short term memory to long term memory is called memory consolidation.
Retrieval from long term memory is usually best when the information has been stored at which level of processing?
Retrieval from long-term memory is usually best when the information has been stored at a deep level of processing. This means that it has been encoded semantically (related to meaning) rather than superficially (related to surface characteristics). Information processed deeply tends to be more elaborately encoded and easier to retrieve later on.
How do your senses affect memory?
sight is the best for recalling things but smell is better for long term memory
What memory system has an almost unlimited storage capacity?
State - Dependent Memory **
What are the two subsystems of long term memory?
Two subsystems to long-term memory include semantic and episodic memory.
What are the two subsystems of long-term memory?
Two subsystems to long-term memory include semantic and episodic memory.
If you lose your short term memory do you lose your long term memory?
No
What is the term for the permanent storage of information in memory?
Long Term Memory
What is short term and long term memory?
Short term memory is where you store stuff that you won't need for a very long time. Long term is the opposite.
How do short term memory becomes long term memory?
Short term memories are transferred to long term memory through a process called consolidation, which involves strengthening the connections between neurons in the brain. This process is thought to involve the hippocampus and other regions of the brain working together to encode and store the information in a more permanent way. Repeated activation of the memory over time can also contribute to its consolidation into long term memory.
Do hamsters have a short term memory?
Yes and a long term memory too.
What is the three stage model of memory?
sensory menory-->short-term memory--> long term memory
