Detailed explanation-1: -Episodic memory refers to a neurocognitive system that renders possible the conscious recollection of events as they were previously experienced. The term is closely related, but not identical, to autobiographical memory, which refers to memory for and about a person’s own life.
Detailed explanation-2: -An episodic memory is a memory of a specific event. Because each person has a different perspective and experience of an event, episodic memories of that event are unique to each person.
Detailed explanation-3: -Episodic: Episodic memories are what most people think of as memory and include information about recent or past events and experiences, such as where you parked your car this morning or the dinner you had with a friend last month.
Detailed explanation-4: -Semantic memory consists of a “mental thesaurus” that provides “the memory necessary for the use of language” (Tulving, 1972, p. 386), whereas episodic memory consists of memory for “temporally dated episodes or events, and the temporal-spatial relations” among them (Tulving, 1972, p. 385).
