The above quote was made by Tomas Elemans who at the time of the quote worked for PVH as the brand protection Manager. He believes that Storytelling (literature) helps us to empathize with the condition of strangers. This is what is meant by the above quote: "<em>Literature </em><em>has a way of reminding us that the stranger is not so strange".</em>

<em />

<h3>How, according to Tomas Elemans does literature help us to connect with the stranger?</h3>

<em />

Again we turn to Elemans own words. He states that when we read of and imagine being the characters in stories, it helps us <em>transcend the here-and -now</em> thus reducing the focus on our ego or feeling of self-importance while improving our reflection. He says that fiction helps us to disconnect from ourselves and access our <em>emotional</em>, <em>empathetic </em>nature which we often neglect in our daily lives.

Read the sentence from a research paper. Some online communities utilize software that makes it easier to find research resource
andreev551 [17]
This sentence would probably be a citation in APA style. Citations on research papers are very important since they give due credit to the original owner of the statement. Statements that don't have citations tells the readers that those statements are of the researcher/s alone which would be a problem for them if found out that it wasn't theirs to begin with. This would result to a work of plagiarism which is a grave sin in constructing research papers and is more equated with the act of stealing.

Hey!

This is obviously known as short-term memory. We know it is not long-term, as it would not have been forgotten as quickly. Implicit memory has to do with the unconscious recollection of information, so we know that one is not correct, and explicit memory is the conscious recollection of information. While they are both types of long-term memory, the best answer to this problem is a. long-term.
