Declarative Memory is a type of long-term memory that involves the conscious recall of facts and events. It is divided into two categories: episodic memory, which pertains to personal experiences and specific events, and semantic memory, which involves general knowledge and facts about the world.
This form of memory allows individuals to remember information such as names, dates, and places. It is essential for learning and communication, as it enables people to share knowledge and experiences with others. Declarative memory is often assessed through tests that require recall or recognition of information.
