Iconic memory - ANSWER visual sensory memory, lasting only a quarter second,

important info, helps the visual system view surroundings as continuous and stable in

Echoic memory-ANSWER the brief memory of something a person has just heard,
capacity is what can be heard at one moment, duration is 2-4 seconds allows us to
remember what someone has said just long enough to recognize the meaning of the
phrase, allows people to hold onto incoming auditory information just long enough for
the lower brain centers to decide if the information is important enough to become
conscious
