Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Anterograde amnesia is characterized by the inability to form new memories and learn new information after a brain injury or other event. It does not affect old memories, as opposed to retrograde amnesia which is the inability to recall past events. Episodic and procedural memory are types of long-term memory, but are not specific to amnesia.
