Why does this occur? 1) because elaborative rehearsal has transferred this image to your Long-Term Store/Memory, where it is stored indefinitely

3) because visual images are held in Sensory Store/Memory for up to about 1/4 second

4) because maintenance rehearsal keeps this image in your Short-Term Store/Memory indefinitely
