Isabel’s first car had a manual stick shift. After many years of driving an automatic car, she needs to use her sister’s car, which also has a stick shift. Isabel takes a few minutes to get used to shifting gears. Which memory system is she using to recall this information?

Answer:

Procedural memory

Step-by-step explanation:

Procedural memory is a type of long-term memory that stores the way things are done; refers to how perceptual, cognitive and motor skills are acquired, maintained and used. This kind of memory helps us remember how to perpetrate events such as cooking, answering the phone, using the computer, driving, walking, and other things. An example of this memory can be seen in the question above, where Isabel used the procedural memory to remember how to drive a manual gear car.
