About

Episodic memory is a form of declarative memory dedicated to the encoding, storage, and retrieval of personally experienced events, including their associated spatio-temporal and affective context. This academic concept investigates the cognitive and neural processes underlying the subjective sense of re-experiencing specific past events (autonoetic consciousness), which is crucial for constructing personal identity, enabling mental time travel, and guiding future behavior based on past experiences.
