• Episodic memory - This is the part of LTM that relates to experiences a person has had or events from their life. E.g their first day of school. These memories are often linked to emotion I.e the way they felt during that event.
• Semantic memory - This is the part of LTM that involves knowing and recalling facts, concepts and meanings e.g general knowledge like the capital of England.
• Procedural memory - This is the part of LTM involved in knowing how to do certain actions or skills E.g Knowing how to ride a bicycle. These memories are often very hard to explain but are highly automated allowing the person to focus on more demanding, complex tasks.
