I know not to put my finger on a hot stove burner based on my memory of burning myself in the past. This example I used related to getting students to talk more in class.

Question

A) Declarative semantic memory

B) Declarative episodic memory

C) procedural memory

D) sensory memory

Answer 1

Hello Rusul!

Remembering burning yourself in the past would be an example of declarative episodic memory. Episodic memory is memory for specific events and experiences and declarative means information that can be expressed in words.

Hope that helps!
