#REDIRECT [[Explicit memory]]
<b>Declarative memory</b> stores facts and figures. It applies to standard [[textbook learning]]. It is based on pairing the stimulus and the correct response. For example, the question "What is the capital of [[Sierra Leone]]?" and the answer "[[Freetown, Sierra Leone|Freetown]]". The name declarative comes from the fact that we can explicitly "ask" our [[brain]] to make a connection between a pair of simuli. Declarative memory is subject to [[[forgetting]] and requires repetition to last for years. Declarative memories are best established by using [[active recall]] combined with [[mnemonic techniques]] and [[spaced repetition]].
