INTERACTION OF LONG TERM AND SHORT TERM MEMORY

Abstract
Experimental and theoretical arguments are presented for the view that a more explicit consideration of the interaction of long term and short term memory will be necessary for adequate understanding of memory and learning. Some significant aspects of the interaction of distinct but interdependent long term and short term memory are considered in terms of certain salient features of short term and long term storages. This view is supported by experimental findings concerning the nature of information in short term storage, the distinction between short term storage and learning and the role of long term storage in perception and encoding for short term storage.
