TYPES OF LONG-TERM MEMORY
EPISODIC
Memories of events in your life
Time-stamped - remember when they happened
Have to make conscious effort to recall them
E.G. your first day university, your 10th birthday, your wedding day
SEMANTIC
Knowledge of the world and facts

E.G. the capital of England, the meaning of words, names of animals
PROCEDURAL
Memory for actions and skills
How we do things
Recall occurs without awareness or effort
E.G. tying your shoelaces, driving a car, playing table tennis

After a fateful encounter with a bale of hay, a dune buggy crash and -finally- a motorcycle accident, Kent Cochrane sustained damage to multiple parts of his brain and lost all memory of his past experiences. Cochrane could remember facts but not where he had learned them, offering scientists a clue to the distinction between semantic and episodic memory. In 2005 a team of psychologists including Endel Tulving wrote that Cochrane's case had helped contribute to "the eventual crumbling of the neat and tidy single-memory, single-locus model of amnesia.
