#REDIRECT [[Explicit memory]] |
|||
'''Declarative memory''' is the aspect of [[memory]] that stores [[fact]]s and [[event]]s. It applies to standard [[textbook learning]] and [[knowledge]]. 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]]. |

Declarative memory can be divided into [[episodic memory]] (knowledge about the event of learning something) and [[semantic memory]] (knowledge independent of context). |
