HM
inability to form new long term memories (50 first dates) can learn new implicit tasks
anterograde amnesia
direct, recall or recognition, episodic, conscious
explicit memory
distinction between explicit and implicit memory is supported by
brain damage
good memory for generic info, love for wife, unable to remember events, disrupted episodic memory but intact semantic memory
