MEMORY: MORE THAN RECALL


Elizabeth Deligio*, PhD


Community Psychology, Pacifica Graduate Institute,

Santa Barbara, CA, US

“Just as everything participates in memory, so memory participates
in everything: every last thing. In so doing, it draws the world together,
remembering it and endowing it with a connectiveness and a significance
it would otherwise lack—or rather, without which it would not be what it
is or as it is”
Casey, 1987, p. 313

“In general, information enters from the physical environment
through our senses into sensory memory and flows from sensory memory
to short-term memory to long-term memory and then back to short-term
memory when we need to use it”
Griggs, 2017, p. 201
