Episodic memory refers to the ability to recall specific events, experiences and episodes that happened at a particular time and place. Remembering the events of your high school graduation is an example of episodic memory as it involves recalling specific details about a past event. The other options involve semantic memory (recalling factual information about high school like the name of the school and teachers) and procedural memory (remembering how to get from home to school).
