Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Declarative memory refers to memory for events and facts that can be consciously recalled and communicated, which includes both episodic memory (memory for specific events) and semantic memory (memory for general knowledge and facts). Hebbian memory refers to the mechanism of synaptic plasticity that underlies learning and memory, while motor memory and procedural memory refer to memory for skilled movements and procedures, respectively. Nondeclarative memories refer to memories that cannot be consciously recalled or verbally described, such as motor and perceptual skills.
