Chapter Two   A Brief Introduction of Declarative Memory 

2.1 Declarative Memory and Non-Declarative Memory 
Psychologists  define  both  declarative  memory  and  non-declarative  memory  as branches  of  long-term  memory.  The  main  differences  between  declarative  memory and non-declarative memory are described as follows: 1.  Whether it can be described in words: declarative memory can be described in words while non-declarative memory cannot 2.  Whether  it  is  conscious  or  unconscious:declarative  memory  is  always conscious while non-declarative memory is often unconscious 3.  Whether  it  is  specific:  declarative  memory  is  often  specific  while non-declarative memory is often elusive and non-specific. The distinction between episodic memory and semantic memory was first introduced by  Endel  Tulving  in  the  year  of  1972.  However,the  specific  differences  between  the two  were  not  made  clear  until  Daniel  Schacter,  a  student  of  Endel  ulving,  published his  work  in  1985,  separating  explicit  memory,  or  declarative  memory,  from  implicit memory, also procedural memory (Graf, P.& Schacter, D. L., 1985).A classical example to identify the differences between declarative memory and non-declarative memory is as follows:  The  memory  of  our  first  day  in  school  is  declarative,  because  whenever  we  go through the memory , we remember a series of events and scenes, such as the weather that  day,  the  environment  of  the  school,  the  layout  of  the  classroom,  and  the  things that happened to us. These memories are specific, conscious and can be put in words, so  they  constitute  our  declarative  memory.  However,the  way  you  go  to  school  is non-declarative, because all the procedures that you follow to go to school are abstract and finished without conscious.

2.2 Declarative Memory
Declarative  Memory,  also  explicit  memory,  is  the  conscious,  intentional  recollection of factual information, previous experiences and concepts (Ullman MT., 2004).  It can be further divided into two categories: episodic memory, which stores specific personal experiences, and semantic memory, which stores factual information(Tulving E., 1972). Episodic memory is the memory of autobiographical events (times, places, associated emotions,  and  other  contextual  who,  what,  when,  where, &nb本论文由英语论文网提供整理，提供论文代写，英语论文代写，代写论文，代写英语论文，代写留学生论文，代写英文论文，留学生论文代写相关核心关键词搜索。
