Preferred term

working memory  

Definition(s)

  • Working memory is the term used to describe the information one is thinking about at any particular moment. That information keeps changing, and the amount one holds in mind in this way at any moment is quite small compared to the vast amount of information in one's permanent memory storage system in the brain.
