- 4Lack of AttentionPseudo-forgetting
- 5SENSORY REPRESENTATIONS of MemoryVisual images and sounds
- 6VISUAL REPRESENTATIONS of MemoryInformation stored in words, i.e. the concept of a word (e.g. freedom)

- 14VISUAL MEMORY STORETemporary image (20-30 secs) that stores information about location and nature of objects
