Autobiographical memory is a type of memory that consists of episodes recollected from an individual's life, based on a combination of episodic (personal experiences and specific objects, people, and events experienced at particular time and place) and semantic memory (general knowledge and facts about the world). It inherently bears special significance to the person because it is composed of memories that are meaningful and have personal relevance, distinguishing it from other types of memory that might be more temporary, general, or not personally significant.
