Through a series of experiments, researchers evaluated individuals' ability to recall the location and timing of an object - spatial and temporal memory, respectively - and found both to be massive. Don't despair the next time you forget where you placed your keys, parked your car, or set down yo
Spatial and temporal memory are two forms of memory that are critical for navigation and everyday life. Spatial memory refers to the ability to remember the location of objects and events in space, while temporal memory involves the ability to recall the timing and sequence of events.
To conduct their study, Wolfe and colleagues asked participants to remember a number of objects placed on a 7-by-7 grid. Each item was highlighted for two seconds by placing a red square around it. After participants were shown the items, all of the images were removed and the participants were then tested on their ability to recall if they had seen an item before and, if so, where it had been located on the grid.
“In some ways, this is a bit like the game of Memory that many of us played as children, where we turned over a card and then tried to recall the location of a matching card that we had seen before,” said Wolfe. “But unlike in the children’s game, we didn’t just count the exact ‘correct’ answer. We measured how close the participant got to the previously seen image.”
