Understand the concept of episodic memory: Episodic memory is a type of long-term memory that involves the recollection of specific events, situations, and experiences. It is autobiographical and includes personal experiences and specific events in time.
Differentiate between episodic and other types of memory: Episodic memory is distinct from semantic memory, which involves facts and general knowledge, and procedural memory, which involves skills and how to perform tasks.
Analyze the given options: Consider each option and determine whether it represents a personal experience or a general fact or skill.
Evaluate the option 'a special gift you received on your 13th birthday': This option describes a specific personal event, which fits the definition of episodic memory.
Conclude that 'a special gift you received on your 13th birthday' is an example of episodic memory, as it involves recalling a specific personal experience.
