Memory is a function of the brain, and no two persons nor two brains are alike. They think differently, act differently, react to stimuli differently and they also learn and remember things differently, so there is no final answer to this question really. Some persons find it easier to remember what they hear while others find it easier to remember what they see. The lucky few can remember both what they hear and see very well and many of us forget almost anything just too fast.

Can the auditory code used in STM help explain why people have better memory?

Yes, the auditory code used in short-term memory (STM) can explain why people have better memory for information they hear rather than see. This is because auditory information tends to be processed more efficiently and encoded more deeply in STM compared to visual information, resulting in better recall. Additionally, auditory information can be rehearsed more easily through inner speech, enhancing memory retention.

Support services and tools such as tactile signing, braille, and assistive technology are essential for their communication and daily living.
