Long-term memory (LTM) is the final stage of the multi-store memory model proposed by Atkinson-Shiffrin, providing the lasting retention of information and skills.

The multi-store model of memory (also known as the modal model) was proposed by Richard Atkinson and Richard Shiffrin (1968) and is a structural model. They proposed that memory consisted of three stores: a sensory register, short-term memory (STM) and long-term memory (LTM).

The capacity of long-term memory is thought to have no limits. According to some studies, the upper bound on the size of visual and acoustic long-term memory has not been reached. We may find it difficult to encode the details of many events but under certain conditions, a person succeeds when he focuses and tries to encode the information.
