Roger is at a wedding reception where he has been introduced to over 50 guests whom he has never met. He would like to remember as many names as possible. Describe the role that sensory storage, short term memory and long term memory play for roger in this situation.

The  ability of the brain to acquire information, feelings, and  processed, keep, and recollect this for the subject is called memory.

The threes stages of memory are

The ability of Roger to  keep memory of the names with these three stages, depends on how pays attention and his ability  to process information.

The sensory storage depends on the five sense to send  information to his brain. Thus, Roger needs to pay attention to the faces,(iconic memory) voices (echoic memory),  feel or touch (Haptic Memory)  and (Smell) aroma of perfumes when been introduced to the guest.

 These information are retains for few seconds after the guest( the sensation has gone).Thus with this ,he sees every guest as collective set of people without  and not as individual. For his brain to process the information as individual  he needs to network with the Short memory.

The short memory  is the type that retain the information( the names ,voices and touches) of the guests he was introduced to at that present moment. He needs to pay attention and try to retain these sensation to prevent them from been forgotten. These  sensations are  retain  tentatively until the  information is processed. It is these processed information that are stored  by his brain ,and not the sensory signals like in the sensory.

In order for the processed or interpreted information to be stored and used for longer time, and recalled when needed, these are transferred to the long term memory. This is subdivided into  two types; explicit  and implicit memory.

He will makes use of the explicit memory because the stored names can  be recollected consciously after storage when the 3 types of memories are merged. Unlike the  implicit that can not be access consciously.

With the capture of the image of the guest with sensory memory, temporary store  the processed names  with short term and   stored this  for future, Roger should  be able to remember these names.

In this situation, the role of sensory storage would be-

as he enters at reception the smalls, images, would be sensed by him and make its burn the memories in his brain.

Short-Term memory helps in make him remember by the names associated with the small gesture, movement, mannerisms made by them. For example, sam stutters can be remembered as stutter Sam.

Long-Term memory helps in building memory by long haul with help of scenery by relating individuals he already know before the reception and whenever see them mind reminds the name.
