    This document summarizes the three main types of human memory: sensory memory, short-term memory, and long-term memory. Sensory memory briefly stores perceptions from the senses. Short-term memory, also called working memory, can hold a limited amount of information for seconds or minutes. Long-term memory can store much larger quantities of information for potentially unlimited durations, such as memories from one's entire life.
