Leonard can remember exactly where he was and how he felt when he got the call to tell him that his grandmother had died; the weather, the time, what activities he was engaged in. He feels that the memory of this day is more vivid and intense than his memory of a regular day would be. Leonard’s experience is an example of a _____________________ memory. These memories can be triggered by events or experiences that are very emotional in nature.
