Expert Solution
Defintions
  1. Explicit Memory (declarative memory) is a type of memory that refers to the recollection of past experiences or information, that is done consciously and intentionally. Conscious recall of events, facts, and personal information is done through this type of memory.

  2. Implicit memory (non-declarative memory) refers to unconscious and unintentional memories that influence behavior or thought without consciously being aware of it. This type of memory is characterized by changes in behaviour or thought as a result of experience. But, there is no conscious awareness of it.

  3. Iconic memory is a type of sensory memory that refers to the brief retention of visual images. This type of memory lasts for a very short period of time like a fraction of a second and provides the brain with a short-term visual representation of a stimulus.

  4. Sensory memory is the first stage of memory processing that involves the storage of sensory information for a short period of time. Sensory memory is based on the type of sensory information being processed. Visual, auditory, haptic, olfactory and gustatory are five types.

  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.
