Preferred term

developmental dysmnesia  

Definition

  • "a persistent disorder of explicit long-term memory that cannot be explained by an intellectual disability or by a sensory or other cognitive disorder, in the absence of an educational and social deficiency. The disorder may affect semantic memory or episodic memory, in verbal and/or visual modality. The disorder may be at the stage of information encoding, storing or retrieval. The disorder appears during development and has no identified organic cause (unlike developmental amnesia)." (Bussy et al., 2019, p. 44).
