-
Priming (e.g., being more likely to use a word you heard recently)
-
Classical conditioning (salivating when you see a favorite food)
-
Skill learning (e.g., knowing how to ride a bike)
-
Short-term memory (working memory)
-
Episodic memory (e.g., remembering first day of school)
-
Spatial memory (e.g. learning the configuration of a maze)
-
Nonassociative learning (e.g., learning to ignore a frequently ringing bell; or getting increasingly irritated by the bell)
-
Semantic memory (e.g., knowing the capital of Rwanda)
