Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Short-term memory holds information for a brief period of time, usually a minute or two. Sensory memory holds onto sensory information for a very brief moment (less than a second), and long-term memory holds information for a much longer period of time. Procedural memory refers to memory for skills and abilities, not specific information.
