ABSTRACT
Memory disorders are a frequent consequence of a variety of childhood neurological conditions. We will review the
characteristics of memory disorders as a function of the main four memory systems: short-term memory, episodic
memory, semantic memory, and procedural memory. For each system, we will identify the most typical cerebral and/or
genetic correlates, and we will discuss the impact of impairment of each memory system on everyday life functioning.
