Psychologists originally used the term
short-term memory to refer to the ability to hold information in mind over a
brief period of time. As conceptions of short-terra memory expanded to include
more than just the brief storage of information, psychologists created new
terminology. The term working memory is now commonly used to refer to a broader
system that both stores information briefly and allows manipulation and use of
the stored information. Psychologists often study working memory
storage by examining how well people remember a list of items. In a typical
experiment, people are presented with a series of words, one every few seconds.
Then they are instructed to recall as many of the words as they can, in any
order. Most people remember the words at the beginning and end of the series
better than those in the middle. This phenomenon is called the serial position
effect because the chance of recalling an item is related to its position in the
series. In this experiment, recall was tested either immediately after
presentation of the list items or after 30 seconds. Subjects in both conditions
demonstrated what is known as the primacy effect, which is better recall of the
first few list items. Psychologists believe this effect occurs because people
tend to process the first few items more than later items. Subjects in the
immediate-recall condition also showed the recency effect, or better recall of
the last items on the list. Working memory has a basic
limitation: It can hold only a limited amount of information at one time. Early
research on short-term storage of information focused on memory span--bow many
items people can correctly recall in order. More recent studies have attempted
to separate true storage capacity from processing capacity by using tests more
complex than memory span. These studies have estimated a somewhat lower
short-term storage capacity than did the earlier experiments. People can
overcome such storage limitations by grouping information into chunks, or
meaningful units. Working memory is critical for mental work, or
thinking. The ability to carry out these kinds of calculations depends on
working memory capacity, which varies individually. Studies have also shown that
working memory changes with age. As children grow older, their working memory
capacity increases. Working memory declines in old age and in some types of
brain diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease. Working memory capacity is
correlated with intelligence (as measured by intelligence tests). This
correlation has led some psychologists to argue that working memory abilities
are essentially those that underlie general intelligence. In addition, research
suggests that there are different types of working memory. For example, the
ability to hold visual images in mind seems independent from the ability to
retain verbal information.

{{B}}TEXT A{{/B}} His ignorance was as
remarkable as his knowledge. Of contemporary literature, philosophy and
politics he appeared to know next to nothing. Upon my quoting Thomas Carlyle, he
inquired in the naivest way who he might be and what he had done. My surprise
reached a climax, however, when I found incidentally that he was ignorant of the
Copernican Theory and of the composition of the Solar system.
"You appear to be astonished," Holmes said, smiling at my expression. "Now
that I do know it I shall do my best to forget it. You see, I consider that a
man's brain originally is like a little empty attic, and you have to stock it
with such furniture as you choose: A fool takes in all the lumber of every sort
that he comes across, so that the knowledge which might be useful to him gets
crowded out, or at best jumbled up with a lot of other things, so that he has
difficulty in laying his hand upon it. It is a mistake to think that the little
room has elastic walls and can distend to any extent. Depend upon it, there
comes a time when for every addition of knowledge you forget something that you
know before. It is of the highest importance, therefore, not to have useless
facts elbowing out the useful ones." "But the Solar System!" I
protested. "What the deuce is it to me?" he interrupted
impatiently. One morning, I picked up a magazine from the table
and attempted to while away the time with it, while my companion munched
silently at his toast. One of the articles had a pencil mark at the heading, and
I naturally began to run my eye through it. Its somewhat
ambitious title was "The Book of Life," and it attempted to show how much an
observant man might learn by an accurate and systematic examination of all that
came in his way. It struck me as being a remarkable mixture of shrewdness
and of absurdity. The reasoning was close and intense, but the deduction
appeared to me to be far-fetched and exaggerated. The writer claimed by a
momentary expression, a twitch of a muscle or a glance of an eye, to fathom a
man's inmost thought. Deceit, according to him, was impossibility in the case of
one trained to observation and analysis. His conclusions were as infallible as
so many propositions of Euclid. So startling would his results appear to the
uninitiated that until they learned the processes by which he had arrived at
them they might well consider him as a necromancer. "From a drop
of water, "said the writer, "a logician could infer the possibility of an
Atlantic. So all life is a great chain, the nature of which is known whenever we
are shown a single link of it. Like all other arts, the science of Deduction and
Analysis is one which can be acquired by long and patient study, nor is life
long enough to allow any mortal to attain the highest possible perfection in
it." This smartly written piece of theory I could not accept
until a succession of evidences justified it.
