On Finding Nemo, Dory has short term memory loss...Well my question is how does she remember that?

Maybe because she doesn't remember anything, so she just assumes she has short term memory loss. Also, remembering you have short term memory loss is stored in long term memory.

I have a memory learning disability that really impacts my math hard. I have working memory problems. \n\nTherefore, I work out everything on paper, with calulators, and have tons of sticky notes everywhere reminding me of stuff. I also keep two different, coordinated planners for "to do."\n\nSince I can't use memory in my head unless it is long-term, and it is not practical to memorize everything into long-term memory, I live off paper. Paper is my short-term/working memory.

"What Are The Effects Of Sleep Deprivation on Short Term Memory?"...\n\nHave 3 people play the card game "Memory" (where you have 20 cards with pictures on them and turn them upside down, turning them over 2 at a time until you can turn two over and match them all) after getting 8 continuous hours of sleep.  Then, the next night, have one person get 8 hours of sleep, on person get 4 hours of sleep, and the last get no sleep, the play the game again.  Record your observations.\n\n"Under What Conditions Do Beans Grow Best?"…\n\nGet 4 jars and fill one with soil from your back yard, one with potting soil, one with sand, and pay a wet paper towel in the last.  Put a bean seed in each one (placing the seed under the wet paper towel in the jar) and water them equally each day (spray the paper towel twice daily to keep it moist).  See which method of planting produces the best bean plant.

I really want to answer with "I don't remember" but I figured that though slightly funny it wouldn't be too nice.  I did find several sites with tests, try this one:\nhttp://quiz.ivillage.com/health/tests/shorttermmemory.htm

I know someone who was in a car accident about 2&1/2 years ago & had complications. Remembers most everything before 11 or 12 years ago well enough with a few gaps here and there (probably remembers as well as anyone else does in their life from 12+ years ago). \nBut still can't remember anything from 11 or 12 years ago to 2&1/2 years ago. \nThe fortunate thing: can't remember what's been forgotten. \nFamily members and friends have tried to help by showing photos or telling stories but it's just not there. None of us realized how much wasn't remembered until this past Summer -- then had to admit not remembering anything at all between 11-12 years ago to 2&1/2 years ago (when woke up in the hospital).\nRemembers which photos have been seen and which stories have been heard over the last 2&1/2 years but there's no memory of the actual person or event, and there's no emotion at all attached to the photos/people/events.

Mav would love to but she is incapable of memorization.  She can remember, but because of a head injury when she was very young, she is incapable of memorizing in that way.  \n\n\n(Go ahead, everyone! Mav has heard all the head injury jokes!! Mav is a bit sarcastic, she would use them!)

At the beginning she woke up in a hospital with tubes & flash memories from the last movie. We don't know what they did to her during that time. In the same amount of time they were able to turn her friend into a monster, so you have to use your imagination. Also it helps if you saw the first movie.

Short term memory is just that, short.  It is processed immediately into the brain by I (beleive) not sure, the cerebellum or hippocampus.  After that it is tranferred into long term memory by being stored in another part of the brain, the hippocampus or cerebellum, I forget which is which.  This is why they say to study in short "spurts" rather than try to cram for tests.  It gives the brain a chance to rest and "save to the hard drive" if you will.  That's why some people have great short term, but terrible long term and vice versa.  Don't know if that answered your question or not, but I gave it a shot.

Images come and go for me but listening to sounds stays more in my memory. For instance I still can't forget what Grover from Sesame street sounds like...i kind of forgot what he looks like but not the voice...and it's REALLY annoying!

Isn't it that thing that you remembered first but then you said no not that thing, it's the other thing but it wasn't the other thing, it was the one thing you said you always wanted to remember but keep forgetting. So you tried a new thing to remember this one thing you said you didn't want to forget. So now, do you remember which is the thing since it was the thing you didn't want to forget so you used another things to help remember this thing??\n\n\nOk fine, stop thinking and it will come to you, it normally does.

That's cute! You reminded me that my mom used to call it that. Now I am going thru my own and my mother has been gone for 14 years, it is good to be reminded of her cute and funny ways.\n\nThanks for a fun question. Oh, and in answer to it==> just avoid your friend's mom during her pause times and wait til she's on "play" again ;-)
