Recount an experience that involves episodic, semantic, and procedural memories. Be sure to explain how your experience exemplifies all three types of memory.
What will be an ideal response?
I learned how to play the guitar from a friend when I was in high school. I can remember the first lesson in Jeff's basement. Jeff was always burning incense, so there was a distinctive smell. And after listening to a few songs, Jeff tried to teach me how to play "Louie Louie." These memories are all episodic. I also encoded semantic memories like what a fret is, and what flats and sharps are. My procedural memories include how to position my fingers to play a moving "bar" chord and how to strike a single string without touching nearby strings.
