The document outlines a practical experiment aimed at comparing the recall of meaningful versus non-meaningful words, with the hypothesis that meaningful words will be better remembered. It discusses the concept of memory, including types such as sensory, short-term, and long-term memory, and their respective functions. The procedure for conducting the practical is also briefly mentioned, emphasizing the importance of a suitable environment for the experiment.

Sensory memory is the short-term storage of sensory information
from the five senses (sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell). It's
the first step in the process of perception. 4
Here are some things to know about sensory memory:
. Duration: Sensory memory lasts for a few hundred milliseconds
to 1-2 seconds.
Types: There are different types of sensory memory, including
iconic memory for visual images and echoic memory for
sounds.

shoruterm memory is the ability to retain a small amount of
information for a short period of time, usually 15-30 seconds. It's
also known as short-term storage, primary memory, or active
memory.
Long Term Memory
Long-term memory consists of memories that the brain has stored
over an extended period of time. These memories can be from an
hour ago or from decades earlier.
Long-term memory refers to the memory process in the brain that
takes information from the short-term memory store and creates
long lasting memories. These memories can be from an hour ago
or several decades ago.
Long-term memory can hold an unlimited amount of information
for an indefinite period of time. Short-term memories become
long-term memories in a region of the brain called
the hippocampus. Another part of the brain called the cortex
stores these long-term memories.
There are two types of long-term memory: procedural and
declarative.
