What are the fundamental types of memory? In Part I, we talked about procedural memory, also known as nondeclarative or implicit memory. As you will recall, this is the memory of physical skills and habits which we develop by repeated and often deliberate practice. We’re talking about skills such as walking, phonation, riding a bike and swinging a golf club. As we consciously learn these skills, they become ingrained in our subconscious and move from long-term storage in the cerebral cortex, where they’d ordinarily be accessible to conscious recall, into the cerebellum where they reside as automatic, subconscious skills. You will recall that once these skills become subconscious, they are very difficult to unlearn as was demonstrated in the hilarious video about how effortful it is to unlearn how to ride a bike.
