Re: Give an example of a neuroimaging study that differentiates between semantic and episodic memory
Semantic memory is the type of explicit memory (we divide long-term memory into explicit and implicit memory) in which we store knowledge and memory for facts. Episodic memory on the other hand is also part of explicit memory, but it holds memory for personal experiences.
The neuroimaging study that differentiates between semantic and episodic memory was conducted by Brian Levine and his coworkers. He told the participants to keep diaries on audiotape describing everyday personal events, and facts drawn from semantic knowledge. When the participants later listened to these audiotaped descriptions while in MRI scanner, the recordings of everyday events elicited detailed episodic autobiographical memories, while other recordings simply reminded people of semantic facts. The results of the study indicate that although there is overlap between activation caused by episodic and semantic memories, there are major differences as well.
