Consciousness, Thought, and Memory
... Memory is the storage and retrieval of information. The two stages of memory are short term (STM) and long term (LTM). STM is the first step, and is limited to seven or eight chunks of information. Some 5% of sensory input is transferred to the STM. The LTM is of limitless capacity, but its ability ...

Eyewitness memory (child testimony)
An eyewitness testimony is a statement given under oath by a person present at an event who can describe what happened. During circumstances in which a child is a witness to the event, the child can be used to deliver a testimony on the stand. The credibility of a child, however, is often questioned due to their underdeveloped memory capacity and overall brain physiology. Researchers found that eyewitness memory requires high-order memory capacity even for well-developed adult brain. Because a child's brain is not yet fully developed, each child witness must be assessed by the proper authorities to determine their reliability as a witness and whether or not they are mature enough to accurately recall the event, provide important details and withstand leading questions.
