Verified step by step guidance1
Step 1: Understand the Three Box Model of Memory, which consists of three components: Sensory Memory, Short-term Memory, and Long-term Memory.
Step 2: Recognize that Sensory Memory briefly holds sensory information from the environment, such as sights and sounds, for a very short duration.
Step 3: Identify that Short-term Memory is responsible for temporarily holding and processing information that you are consciously aware of and actively using.
Step 4: Note that Long-term Memory stores information for extended periods, potentially indefinitely, and is not involved in immediate, short-term storage.
Step 5: Conclude that the component responsible for storing information in short-term memory is, by definition, the Short-term Memory itself.
