Information in long-term memory is stored mainly in semantic form.
Long-term memory is organised largely by meaning. Studies such as Baddeley's (1966) found that long-term recall is disrupted by similarity of meaning, while short-term recall is disrupted by similarity of sound. People typically remember the gist of what they heard or read rather than the exact words.
Sensory form belongs to the brief sensory registers, and acoustic coding is characteristic of short-term memory. Tactile and acoustic information can be stored long-term, but they are not the primary code.
