Information Processing Model - A model of memory with three distinct stages (sensory, short-term, long-term), Sensory memory - Initial stage in memory that briefly stores incoming sensory information in its raw form, Iconic memory - Stores visual images in original sensory form for about 1/3 of a second, Echoic memory - Stores auditory information for about 2-4 seconds, Short-term memory - Memory system with limited capacity (7±2 items) and duration (5-15 seconds without rehearsal), Displacement - When information is pushed out of STM by new incoming information, Decay - When information fades over time due to lack of use, Rehearsal - The process where something is consciously done to retain information in memory, Maintenance rehearsal - Repeating information in a rote fashion without adding new meaning, Elaborative rehearsal - Reorganising new and existing information in a meaningful way to aid storage and retrieval, Long-term memory - Memory system that stores huge amounts of information for considerable periods of time, False memory - A fabricated or distorted recollection of an event that did not actually happen,
