Question

Explain how explicit and implicit memories are produced and processed. Be sure to discuss how the two types of memory are different.

Answer 1

Answer:

There is no short answer.

Explanation:

Both implicit and explicit memories belong to the long term memory part of our brains. The main difference between the two is that implicit memories are subconscious and hard to forget even with the abscence of recollection which explicit memories are not. They are forgotten if they are not actively recalled and used. Implicit memories can be basic tasks or information like where each room is in your house. Explicit memories can be anything that you learn in school or something like the birthday of your best friend or your phone number etc.
