Anonim

Scientists distinguish three types of memory - emotional, shaped and verbal-logical. At the same time, each of them is also divided into short-term and long-term.

Short-term memory is notable for instant memorization, but minus it is that the stored information is stored for a short time. It is this memory that helps when preparing for school and institute exams: Two days of the abstracts are allowed to give a magnificent result on the exam, but it is worth a student to leave the audience, he completely forgets, about which five minutes ago he was discussed. Nevertheless, this memory is helped in achieving small goals. The memory is long-term, as follows from its name, allows you to save information for a long time.

And the memory is the auditory, visual, flavor, emotional, tactile, motor.

And none of them is even the one that allows you to remember the incident to dozens of a second, - it does not disappear without a trace, and forever imprinted in the brain. Nothing amazing, because by and large, memory is obtaining and storing life experience. Another thing is that not any person can reproduce the postponement information, and it settles somewhere on the backyards of the subconscious.

However, sometimes even the shortest memory suddenly pops up to the surface, allowing some vital issues to solve. In principle, how much the person uses his memory is depends on his whole life: health, social status, personal life, career growth, intellect, development, taste, profession, and much, much more.
