Short-term Memory (STM)
Short-term memory (STM) serves as a temporary storage system that processes incoming information from sensory memory. It is capable of retaining a limited amount of data for a brief duration of 15 to 30 seconds. While in this active state, short-term memory can also integrate new sensory input with existing knowledge retrieved from long-term memory. Although often confused with working memory, short-term memory is more accurately classified as a distinct sub-component within the broader working memory framework.

You are at a celebration and wave a lit sparkler in the air, creating a circle of light. Even though the sparkler is only at one point in the circle at any given moment, you perceive a complete, continuous circle for a fraction of a second. This brief persistence of the visual image is an example of which cognitive process?

A person sees a new phone number on a billboard, mentally rehearses it until they can write it down a few seconds later, and is then able to recall it the next day. According to the model that describes memory as a sequence of three distinct stages, place the following memory events in the correct order.
