long term semantic memory

Long-term and semantic memory: durable encoding, consolidation, and retrieval of knowledge and experience beyond the span of working memory — episodic and semantic memory, semantic networks and schemas, retrieval cues, recognition and recall, spatial and route knowledge, and learned associations. The foundational construct of lasting declarative memory. Unlike working_memory, which is brief active maintenance and manipulation of present information, this concerns durable storage and retrieval of past knowledge; unlike prospective_memory_interruptions, which is remembering to perform a future intention, this is memory for prior knowledge and events; unlike automaticity_skill_acquisition, which is procedural skill learning, this is declarative knowledge.
