El tercer tipo principal de recuerdos son los recuerdos epis\u00f3dicos<\/strong>. A menudo se les denomina recuerdos \u201cautobiogr\u00e1ficos\u201d porque son memorias de cosas que hemos experimentado personalmente. Lo que vimos. Lo que o\u00edmos. Lo que hicimos. Este tipo de memoria est\u00e1 m\u00e1s estrechamente asociado con nuestro sentido del yo porque es la narrativa de nuestras vidas. Adem\u00e1s, es la memoria epis\u00f3dica la que nos permite viajar mentalmente en el tiempo para revivir algo que nos sucedi\u00f3 hace a\u00f1os (o d\u00e9cadas). <\/p>\n\n

Pero incluso nuestros recuerdos autobiogr\u00e1ficos m\u00e1s claros no son 100% epis\u00f3dicos. Dado que nuestros cerebros solo recuerdan lo que creen que ser\u00e1 importante para nosotros en el futuro, rara vez recordamos todos los detalles de algo que experimentamos. Por lo tanto, cuando recordamos algo que nos sucedi\u00f3 en el pasado, nuestros recuerdos epis\u00f3dicos suelen estar incompletos. Para compensar, nuestros cerebros rellenan autom\u00e1ticamente estas lagunas con recuerdos sem\u00e1nticos, incluidos hechos y los patrones comunes almacenados en esquemas. Esta combinaci\u00f3n nos permite recordar lo que parece ser un recuerdo completo. Pero como no est\u00e1 compuesto enteramente de los detalles espec\u00edficos almacenados en la memoria epis\u00f3dica, no ser\u00e1 necesariamente un reflejo preciso de lo que realmente sucedi\u00f3. <\/p>\n\n

Por ejemplo, si alguna vez ha estado en la isla grande de Haw\u00e1i, probablemente vol\u00f3 hacia y desde el aeropuerto internacional de Kona. Despu\u00e9s de pasar por el aeropuerto, su cerebro decidi\u00f3 si alg\u00fan detalle del aeropuerto era importante para su futuro. Si decidi\u00f3 que no lo era, entonces no guardar\u00eda ninguna informaci\u00f3n en su memoria epis\u00f3dica. <\/p>\n\n

Por lo tanto, m\u00e1s tarde, cuando intente recordar c\u00f3mo era la zona de embarque del aeropuerto de Kona, probablemente la recordar\u00eda como similar a la mayor\u00eda de los aeropuertos que ha visitado (bas\u00e1ndose en su memoria sem\u00e1ntica): filas y filas de inc\u00f3modas sillas negras, restaurantes y tiendas con precios excesivos, y una larga pasarela cerrada que le lleva desde la puerta hasta el avi\u00f3n. Esto, a pesar de que el aeropuerto internacional de Kona est\u00e1 casi completamente al aire libre, con bancos de madera en lugar de sillas y, para abordar su avi\u00f3n, camina sobre la pista y luego sube por una rampa port\u00e1til. <\/p>\n\n

\"Zona<\/figure>\n\n
\"Aeropuerto<\/figure>\n\n

Para usted, el recuerdo puede parecer muy claro, sin ning\u00fan indicio de que sea un compuesto o de que no sea un reflejo preciso de lo que experiment\u00f3 personalmente. Y, la mayor\u00eda de las veces, esta ficci\u00f3n creada por nuestros cerebros no es gran cosa. Cumple su prop\u00f3sito: ayudarnos r\u00e1pidamente a navegar por nuestro mundo. <\/p>\n\n

Pero cuando nosotros (o alguien m\u00e1s) se\u00f1ala los fallos en nuestra memoria, puede resultar perturbador, porque \u201cnosotros\u201d estuvimos all\u00ed, pero no parecemos recordar lo que realmente sucedi\u00f3.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
