ALPHABETICAL BRAIN VOCABULARY Flash Card #56 - Details WHAT IS YOUR "EPISODIC MEMORY" WHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT? Your EPISODIC MEMORY stores vivid "events" in your brain, which you have actually experienced in the past! This typically happens in a "sequence of frames" so that the recollection unfolds over a time period similar to the original experience you had in the past. These memories are usually "fragmented" since only a few events in real life keep your attention very long. Return to #56: EPISODIC MEMORY or BRAIN FACTS MATRIX
