    Short-term (sensory) memory has been defined as a temporary storage unit for verbal information. Sensory memory consists of sensory information retained in an unprocessed form in the sensory system through which it entered. This form of memory is short lived (0.5-3 seconds) - thus called short-term, but has a large capacity.

    Working memory is defined as including active information processing for all kinds of information.
