How good is your memory?

 Short term memory test: 9/12 correct

Test your memory for an every day object: I did common cents and tried to find the correct penny but I didn't get it correct. I don't pay attention to the details of a penny too much.

How is memory for faces?: 8/10 parts of the face correct

These tests are probably not very accurate when it comes to the validity because they are generalizing our memory based off of one circumstance.

The research done by the University of St. Augustine shows how memory can be improved using a variety of techniques like saying things out loud, visualizing things, and using mnemonics. This is because it engages other senses and goes beyond just a cognitive aspect of recall.
