Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Short-term memory is responsible for storing information for a brief period of time, usually around 20-30 seconds. If the introduction was made 10 minutes ago and you cannot remember the person's name, it is likely that the information was not transferred to your long-term memory and has since been forgotten. This is a common limitation of short-term memory.
