EnglishThe term “short-term memory” (STM) refers to a number of memory systems, with limited capacity, concerned with the temporary (in the range of seconds) retention of a variety of materials. This article will present current knowledge concerning the functional and anatomical organization of STM in humans, with a multidisciplinary approach. Behavioral, functional neuroimaging activation, and NIBS studies in healthy human participants, engaged in tasks assessing short-term retention, as well as neuropsychological evidence from patients with brain damage will be considered. The article will be concerned with the more extensively investigated aspects of STM: Verbal and visuo-spatial. Many of the data come from studies in the adult, but some pertinent evidence from different populations (children, elderly participants) will be also mentioned. The general idea that the faculty of memory is not unitary and monolithic, comprising instead multiple systems, dates back at least to the “Essay concerning human understanding” by the British philosopher John Locke (1700), who suggested a broad distinction between two types of memory, one concerned with temporary retention and the other as a store-house of materials which have been laid out of sight. This distinction between two memory systems, one shorter- and one longer-term with respect to the duration of the trace, was revived by the North American psychologist William James (1890), who suggested the existence of a limited capacity “Primary Memory,” embracing the present and the immediate past, and supporting consciousness. Psychological research in the XIX century, and in the first half of the XX, was however mainly concerned with the diverse factors affecting learning and retention, in the context of a basically unitary view of human memory. It was only in the 1950s that STM became the object of systematic scientific investigation in healthy participants. Fig. 1 shows a model of STM and LTM, popular in the 1970s (Atkinson and Shiffrin, 1971)
