Identify the type of memory being described in the problem. The problem refers to memory involving the awareness of meanings of words, concepts, and terms, as well as names of objects and skills.
Understand the different types of memory mentioned: Declarative, Semantic, Implicit, and Explicit.
Declarative memory is a type of long-term memory that involves conscious recollection of facts and events. It includes both semantic and episodic memory.
Semantic memory is a subtype of declarative memory that involves the storage and recall of general knowledge, such as meanings of words and concepts, which matches the description in the problem.
Implicit memory refers to unconscious memories, such as skills and tasks, while explicit memory involves conscious recall, which includes both semantic and episodic memory. Therefore, the correct term for the memory type described is 'Semantic memory.'
