rememorous

Rememorous is a coined term used to describe the quality or state of having a notably strong or reliable memory, especially with respect to episodic or autobiographical information.

In academic and speculative discussions, rememorous may refer to the ability to recall past events with high detail, vividness, and consistency across time, without targeted mnemonic strategies. However, it is a neologism and not widely standardized in cognitive science; usages vary, and it is not a formal diagnosis.

The term is a neologism formed from the root recall and a suffix suggesting a characteristic, reflecting its memory-related sense.

Rememorous memory is often contrasted with phenomena such as hyperthymesia, which refers to extreme autobiographical memory, or with general working memory and semantic memory.

In literature and media, rememorous can describe characters with extraordinary recall, while in research it may serve as a descriptive variable in studies of memory vividness, accuracy, and confidence, though it lacks a standard measurement.

Related terms include hyperthymesia, autobiographical memory, episodic memory, memory accuracy, and mnemonics.
