An Introduction to Theories of Human Memory in Psychology

In this lecture, we will study the fundamental aspects of human memory. Every mental process, such as attention, perception, learning, and problem-solving, involves memory. There are three types of memory: sensory memory, short-term memory, and long-term memory. By the end of the conference, students will be able to understand the main differences between sensory, short-term, and long-term memory.
