Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The statement is describing a specific event that the person experienced, making it an example of episodic memory which is the memory of autobiographical events. The other options - implicit, semantic, and procedural - don't fit as well because they don't involve a specific event or personal experience. Implicit memory refers to unconscious memories (such as motor skills), semantic memory involves the memory of facts about the world, and procedural memory involves the memory of how to do specific tasks, like riding a bike or typing.
