Explicit memory refers to the conscious or intentional memory of facts and experiences. This type of memory can be consciously recalled and verbalized, and includes episodic memory (memories of specific events) and semantic memory (general knowledge and facts). Implicit memory, on the other hand, refers to unconscious memory that affects behavior and includes procedural memory (memory for how to perform skilled activities) and priming (enhanced identification of words or objects that have been recently encountered). Semantic memory refers specifically to the memory of general knowledge and facts, but does not necessarily have to be consciously recalled.
