CLASSIFICATION PARAGRAPH
Types of Long-Term Memory
2
1 Memory may be classified as short term or long term. Long-term memory is
further divided into two categories: explicit and implicit. Explicit memory is used
3
4
when trying to recall a specific fact or event. Examples of explicit memory include
remembering dates and historical events in order to answer a question on exam or
5
recalling when a recent purchase was made. In contrast, implicit memory, often
6
referred to as procedural memory, is automatic. Procedural memory develops from
repetition: performing the same action over and over again. Over time, the action
7
becomes “automatic,” and a person no longer has to think about the steps to perform
8
it. Examples of procedural memory include riding a bicycle, formatting a computer
9
document, and brushing one’s teeth. Explicit and implicit, or procedural, memories
are stored in different areas of brain.
