Detail: Memory allows efficient coding, search, retrieval, generalization, discrimination, adaptation, and survival. Brain has sensory Specialized Knowledge Modules, which can activate reflexes and awareness, and reasoning and acting Executive System, which can inform consciousness of plans, activate habits, control senses, and respond voluntarily. Intermediate system {conscious awareness system} integrates information from modules for use by executive system and exchanges information with episodic memory. Executive only uses conscious information. He studied memory transience.
