1. Recalling what outfit you wore yesterday is an example of which type of memory?
A. episodic memory
B. declarative memory
C. short-term memory
D. both A and B
E. both A and C
I think it's both A and B since episodic memory is part of declarative memory, but any explanation would be helpful. Thank you!
D. both A and B.
Declarative memory can be defined as the recollection of
experiences, events, and information every day. Basically it means
those memories that can be declared explicitly. There are two types
of declarative memory: episodic and semantic memories. Episodic
memory is the conscious recollection of previous experiences
attached to a context ( in terms of time, place or attached
emotion, etc.) whereas, semantic memory involves the ability to
recall words, numbers, or concepts.
So, recalling what outfit you wore yesterday is episodic memory and
since episodic memory is a type of declarative memory, the answer
is option D.
