Sumario:This training title demonstrates an assessment to measure Short Term Memory. Short-term memory is defined as the ability to remember bits of information or behavioral skills after several minutes even when people are distracted with other tasks during those several minutes. The majority of people can remember three items for immediate recall and then also recall the three items five minutes later after having performed other tasks during the five minutes. Short-term memory should improve when people are allowed to rehearse and repeat information numerous times or are allowed to associate new information with old information. If people have trouble with recall of the information after several minutes, the people can be further measured by giving hints about the information. This should help people who are having difficulty due to anxiety or have mild memory impairment.
