The Atkinson-Shiffrin Memory Model The Atkinson-Shiffrin three-stage model of memory defines three stages of memory-sensory memory, short-term memory, and long-term
memory-through which information passes before it is stored. Information is held in the sensory memory for a split second and then moves into
short-term memory. Then, if the information is rehearsed, it moves into long-term memory. However, most of what enters the sensory memory does
not make it to the short-term memory, as short-term memory has a limited storage capacity.
The short-term memory can hold a limited amount of information for a short duration, typically lasting for a matter of seconds. The duration for
keeping the information can be increased through rehearsal, in which the information is repeated to oneself. The capacity of short-term memory can
be increased through chunking, in which information is organized or grouped into meaningful units or divisions.
Information that is learned is stored in long-term memory. The capacity for long-term memory is vast, and the duration can range from years to a
lifetime, depending on the amount of rehearsal. Long-term memory is divided into explicit memory (the conscious recollection of previous
experiences and information) and implicit memory (the long-term memory of skills and procedures that do not need to be consciously recalled).

Read the passage. excerpt from "why equal pay is worth fighting for" by senator elizabeth warren, april 17, 2014 i honestly can't believe that we're still arguing over equal pay in 2014. when i started teaching elementary school after college, the public school district didn't hide the fact that it had two pay scales: one for men and one for women. women have made incredible strides since then. but 40 years later, we're still debating equal pay for equal work. women today still earn only 77 cents for every dollar a man earns, and they're taking a hit in nearly every occupation. bloomberg analyzed census data and found that median earnings for women were lower than those for men in 264 of 265 major occupation categories. in 99.6 percent of occupations, men get paid more than women. that's not an accident; that's discrimination. the effects of this discrimination are real, and they are long lasting. today, more young women go to college than men, but unequal pay makes it harder for them to pay back student loans. pay inequality also means a tougher retirement for women. . for middle-class families today, it usually takes two incomes to get by, and many families depend as much on mom's salary as they do on dad's, if not more. women are the main breadwinners, or joint breadwinners, in two-thirds of the families across the country, and pay discrimination makes it that much harder for these families to stay afloat. women are ready to fight back against pay discrimination, but it's not easy. today, a woman can get fired for asking the guy across the hall how much money he makes. here in the senate, sen. barbara mikulski (d-md.) introduced the paycheck fairness act to give women the tools to combat wage discrimination. it would ensure that salary differences have something to do with the actual job that they are doing, and not just because they are women. senator warren states that the effects of pay discrimination are long-lasting. is this a valid argument supported by accurate evidence? no; warren weakens her point by claiming that the paycheck fairness act would "give women the tools to combat wage discrimination." yes; warren supports her point by noting, "for middle-class families today, it usually takes two incomes to get by." yes; warren supports her point by noting, "pay inequality also means a tougher retirement for women." no; warren weakens her point by noting, "today, a woman can get fired for asking the guy across the hall how much money he makes."
