Memory There has been much research into the ways which our "memory" actually stores information in our brains. One of the original theories is Crain and Lockhart's Levels of Processing Model, which represented the memory of a series of stores and boxes with a fairly linear progression from sensory information to short term store to long term memory. They proposed that the different levels of memory were due to the different levels of "processing", but found it very difficult to quantify what "deep processing" is. A more complicated, yet more plausible theory is the Parallel Distributed Process model which suggests that memory operates on many different levels at one time, connecting many different stored items, which have connections to other items. The evidence for this is seen in our ability to generalize and remember information that we have not specifically "stored". But these theories do not answer the basic question: How...
