Classifying Stages of Memory

Our memory is managed through the central nervous system within the human body. Our central nervous system also is responsible for coordinating body movements and remembrance. Psychology is the science of how the brain functions through mental behavioral stages in the human body. The word "psychology" comes from the Greek word psyche which means "breath, spirit, soul", and the Greek word logia meaning the study of something. German psychologist Wilhelm Wundt (1832-1920) was the first to create an experimental psychology lab in Leipzig in 1879 (Kendra Cherry). As psychology began to become more popular psychologists have researched and discovered new methods of how the brain coordinates with the human body. With the newly developed studies psychology scientists have determined three stages of memory through experimental researches. Scientists have concluded that the three stages of memory are encoding, storage, and retrieval. Without memory stages, it would be impossible remember important information and personal responsibilities. The brain and the spinal cord partner together to help manage both bodily and memory activities. Neurotransmitters and neurochemicals also help significantly influence the phases of memory by the divisions of the human brain. The process of remembrance is determined by the organization and clutter of a person’s brain.
The first stage of memory is encoding which is the process of breaking down information for remembrance purposes. In the article entitled “How Human Memory Works,” Dr. Richard C. Mohs, PhD and researchers determined that the hippocampus is responsible for capturing information. “Researchers have also a division of the brain called the frontal cortex that is responsible for analyzing various sensory inputs and deciding usefulness of information. The encoding process is mainly completed with brain electricity from neurochemicals and nerve cells. The encoding process begins with the electrical firing of a pulse across the
