- 4Decay.If information doesn't go from the Sensory Store to the STM, it simply decays.
- 5The duration and the capacity of the STM.Duration is 10 - 20 seconds.
Capacity is 7 +/-2 chunks. - 6How information gets from the STM to the LTM.For information to get from the STM to the LTM, you have to maintenance rehearse it for about 30 seconds.
