What can we conclude about similarities and differences in short-term and long-term memory based on the way coding occurs in both?

Explanation:

One similarity between both is that the type of encoding that occurs in a particular situation in both the Short Term Memory and the Long Term Memory depends on the task being carried out.

Another difference between both is the fact that the auditory coding is the predominant type of coding in Short Term Memory, while in that of the Long Term Memory, the semantic coding is the predominant type of coding.

Information can also be remembered in both the Short Term Memory and Long Term Memory with the aid of auditory and semantic coding. Auditory memory is mostly that of Short Term Memory, while Semantic is that of Long Term Memory.
