During his first week of college, Patricio attended a lecture on meteors. His memory of being at that lecture is _____ memory. His memory for the actual information about meteors is _____ memory.Multiple choice question.semantic; episodicpriming; implicitepisodic; semanticimplicit; explicit

The correct answer is "episodic; semantic".

Step 1: Understand the types of memory mentioned in the question.

Episodic memory is the memory of autobiographical events (times, places, associated emotions, and other contextual who, what, when, where, why knowledge) that can be explicitly stated. It is the collection of past personal experiences that occurred at a particular time and place.

Semantic memory, on the other hand, is one of the two types of declarative or explicit memory (our memory of facts or events that is explicitly stored and retrieved). Semantic memory refers to general world knowledge that we have accumulated throughout our lives.

Step 2: Apply these definitions to the question.

Patricio's memory of being at the lecture is a personal experience that occurred at a particular time and place, so it is an episodic memory. His memory for the actual information about meteors is a fact that he has learned, so it is a semantic memory.

Therefore, the correct answer is "episodic; semantic".
