Discussion
The name a good teacher is always remembered by his/her students, just as Arjuna remembered Krishna. Which of the following types of memory is involved in this remembrance?
1. Episodic
2. Semantic
3. Non-declarative
Answer: B
The key is Only 1 and 2, episodic and semantic. Remembering that the teacher is a good teacher, as Arjuna remembered Krishna, draws on facts and meanings (semantic memory) and on personal experiences with the teacher (episodic memory). Both are declarative memories. Non-declarative memory covers skills and conditioned responses that cannot be put into words, so options including 3 are wrong.
Semantic memory holds general knowledge, such as who a teacher is, while episodic memory holds dated personal events, such as being taught by that teacher.
