1. Long-term memory

   Long-term memory (LTM) is the stage of the Atkinson–Shiffrin memory model in which informative knowledge is held indefinitely. It is defined in contrast to short-term and working memory, which persist for only about 18 to 30 seconds. Long-term memory is commonly labelled as explicit memory (declarative), as well as episodic memory, semantic memory, autobiographical memory, and implicit memory (procedural memory).

1. long-term memory

   Long-term memory refers to the storage of information over an extended period. It is the final stage of the memory process where limitless amounts of information can be stored indefinitely. Long-term memory can include knowledge, experiences, skills, and images, and it holds information that can be consciously brought to mind. There are two main types of long-term memory: declarative (explicit) which includes facts and events, and non-declarative (implicit) which includes skills and habits.

1. Long-term memory

   Long-term memory is memory in which associations among items are stored, as part of the theory of a dual-store memory model. The division of long term and short term memory has been supported by several double dissociation experiments. According to the theory, long-term memory differs structurally and functionally from sensory memory, working memory, short-term memory, and intermediate-term memory. While short-term and working memories persist for only about 20 to 30 seconds, information can remain in intermediate-term memory for 5 to 8 hours, and in long-term memory indefinitely. This differs from the theory of the single-store retrieved context model that has no differentiation between short-term and long-term memory. Long term memory is an important aspect of cognition. LTM can be divided into three processes: encoding, storage, and retrieval. Encoding of long-term memory occurs in the medial temporal lobe, and damage to the medial temporal lobe is known to cause anterograde amnesia.
