  • Sensory Register
    • Information comes into the brain here from the senses
    • Held for a short period of time (up to 2 seconds)
    • Stored in the same format as it was received
    • All information from the senses goes into the sensory register
      • Only a small amount is attended to - the rest is lost
    • Large capacity but only a small amount is attended to
