Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Working memory and short-term memory are often used interchangeably, as they refer to the same limited capacity system that holds information temporarily for processing. Metamemory refers to knowledge about one's own memory abilities and strategies, while anterograde amnesia is the inability to form new memories after a brain injury. Long-term memory refers to the storage and retrieval of information over a longer period of time, separate from the limited capacity of working memory/short-term memory.
