Memory is the part of the brain you use to remember things. It is the mind's ability to store information to use later. It is studied in cognitive psychology. There are three main types of memory:

  1. Sensory memory, in which sensations are first noticed.
  2. Short-term memory, the ability to keep information in mind for a short time.
  3. Long-term memory, the ability to remember things long after they happen.
