Expert Solution
Definitions

1. Explicit memory, also called declarative memory is defined as the conscious and intentional recollection of past experiences or information. Conscious recall of events, facts, and personal information are included in this memory. It is tested through verbal recall tasks or recognition tests.

2. Implicit memory, often called non-declarative memory, refers to unconscious, unintentional memories that influence behaviour or thought without conscious awareness. It is the opposite of implicit memory. This type of memory characterizes changes in behaviour as a result of experience, but it does not include conscious recollection of the said experience.

3. Iconic memory is a type of sensory memory that refers brief retention of visual images. This type of memory lasts for only a fraction of a second and provides the brain with a short-term visual representation of the world.

4. Sensory memory is the first stage of memory processing that involves the brief preservation of sensory information. Sensory memory is based on the type of sensory information being processed, therefore there are five types: iconic - visual, echoic - auditory, haptic - touch, olfactory - smell and gustatory - taste.

5. Echoic memory is a type of sensory memory that refers to the brief retention of auditory information. This type of memory lasts for several seconds and provides the brain with a short-term representation of auditory information.
