Short-term memory and working memory – same thing or not?
It has long since been a matter of debate as to whether working memory and short-term memory are the same thing. The popular distinction is that working memory refers to the ability to use, manipulate, and apply memory for a period of time, e.g., remembering directions on how to complete a current task, whereas short-term memory solely concerns the temporary storage of information in memory, typically for around 20-30 seconds. The distinction between short-term and working memory often involves that with short-term memory, the information is not used for anything. With working memory, you would temporarily use the information, e.g., when (frequently) referring to the instructions when assembling furniture from Ikea 😊
