==== Autobiographical memory ==== [[Autobiographical memory]] refers to knowledge about events and personal experiences from an individual's own life. Autographical memories are facilitated by aids including verbal, face-evoked, picture-evoked, odour-evoked, and [[music-evoked autobiographical memory]] cues.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Morgan |first1=Kirstie |last2=Hayne |first2=Harlene |date=November 2007 |title=Nonspecific verbal cues alleviate forgetting by young children |url=https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1467-7687.2007.00622.x |journal=Developmental Science |language=en |volume=10 |issue=6 |pages=727β733 |doi=10.1111/j.1467-7687.2007.00622.x |pmid=17973788 |issn=1363-755X|url-access=subscription }}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Belfi |first1=Amy M. |last2=Bai |first2=Elena |last3=Stroud |first3=Ava |last4=Twohy |first4=Raelynn |last5=Beadle |first5=Janelle N. |date=April 2022 |title=Investigating the role of involuntary retrieval in music-evoked autobiographical memories |journal=Consciousness and Cognition |language=en |volume=100 |pages=103305 |doi=10.1016/j.concog.2022.103305 |pmc=9059816 |pmid=35278896}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Chu |first1=S. |last2=Downes |first2=J.

Conway and Pleydell-Pearce (2000) argue that this is one component of the self-memory system.<ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Conway | first1 = M. A. | last2 = Pleydell-Pearce | first2 = C.
