explicit

Examples of explicit in the following topics:

• Detail on Types of Long-Term Memory

  • Long-term memory consists of conscious explicit (declarative) and unconscious implicit (procedural) memory; both can be stored indefinitely.
  • Long Term Memory can be subdivided into different types based on whether the information is conscious (i.e., explicit) or unconscious (i.e., implicit) to the individual .
  • Explicit memory, also known as conscious or declarative memory, involves memory for facts, concepts and events that require conscious recall of the information.
  • Explicit memory can be further sub-divided into semantic memory, which concerns facts, and episodic memory, which concerns primarily personal or autobiographical information.
  • In contrast to explicit (conscious) memory, implicit memory involves procedures for completing actions.

• Long-Term Memory

  • Long-term memory can be broken down into two categories: explicit and implicit memory.
  • Explicit memory, also known as conscious or declarative memory, involves memory of facts, concepts, and events that require conscious recall of the information.
  • Explicit memory can be further subdivided into semantic memory, which concerns facts, and episodic memory, which concerns primarily personal or autobiographical information.
  • In contrast to explicit (conscious) memory, implicit (also called "unconscious" or "procedural") memory involves procedures for completing actions.

• Compliance

  • "Compliance" refers to a response, specifically a submission, made in reaction to an implicit or explicit request.
  • The request may be explicit (directly stated) or implicit (subtly implied); the target may or may not recognize that he or she is being urged to act in a particular way.

• Introduction to the Process and Types of Memory

  • Explicit or declarative memory requires conscious recall; it consists of information that is consciously stored or retrieved.
  • Explicit memory can be further subdivided into semantic memory (facts taken out of context, such as "Paris is the capital of France") and episodic memory (personal experiences, such as "When I was in Paris, I saw the Mona Lisa").
  • In contrast to explicit/declarative memory, there is also a system for procedural/implicit memory.

• The Role of Attention in Memory

  • There are two main types of attentional capture: explicit and implicit.
  • Explicit attentional capture is when a stimulus that a person has not been attending to becomes salient enough that the person begins to attend to it and becomes cognizant of its existence.

• Obedience

  • Obedience is a form of social influence that occurs when a person yields to explicit instructions or orders from an authority figure.
  • It occurs when a person yields to explicit instructions or orders from an authority figure.

• Attitudes

  • Psychologists believe that attitudes can be either explicit (deliberately formed) or implicit (unconsciously formed).
  • Explicit attitudes are deliberately formed attitudes that an individual is aware of having, and they can be measured by self-report and questionnaires.

• Attitude and Health

  • Some attitudes are explicit (i.e., deliberately formed) while others are implicit (i.e., unconscious or outside of awareness).
  • Implicit and explicit attitudes both affect people's behavior, though in different ways.

• Abnormal Psychology

  • Nevertheless, the diagnostic criteria in the DSM are more explicit than those of any other system, which makes the DSM system highly desirable for both clinical diagnosis and research.

• Standardized Tests

  • Students respond to the same questions, receive the same directions, and have the same time limits, and the tests are scored according to explicit, standard criteria.
