TYPES OF LTM
EPISODIC MEMORIES
- Personal memories that of events with specific details and emotions
- E.g. You went to a party
SEMANTIC MEMORIES
- Memories that are shared with most people
- Includes key facts and general knowledge
- E.g. Ice is made up of water
PROCEDURAL MEMORIES
- Do not require thinking
- Knowing how to do things
- E.g. How to tie your shoes
- These memories are automatic
- Acquired through repetition
EVIDENCE?
- Brain scans show different parts of the brain active with different LTM's
- HM could form procedural but not semantic or episodic
- Semantic can be formed independently
