### Analyses for Characteristics Associated with the Type of Memory
#### 3.3.2 Results for Epoch 2  
Regarding the frequency of the characteristics associated with the different types of memory in epoch 2, significant differences were found (Table 6).  
In particular, activity (Chi\({}^{2}\)(4) = 53.30; \(p\) < 0.001), location (Chi\({}^{2}\)(4) = 25.60; \(p\) < 0.001), presence of self (Chi\({}^{2}\)(4) = 32.56; \(p\) < 0.001), emotion (Chi\({}^{2}\)(4) = 37.08; \(p\) < 0.001) and other participants (Chi\({}^{2}\)(4) = 47.39; \(p\) < 0.001) showed significant differences in rate of occurrence in relation to the type of memory. The highest frequency of these aspects was associated with the SEpE also in this epoch. An increasing frequency can be observed for activity, location, presence of self, emotion and other participants associated with the increasing complexity of the memory reported, with these aspects appearing more frequently when associated with SEpE. On the contrary, the frequency of occurrence for location and participation of self did not differ. Regarding gender significant effect on memory types was found (Chi\({}^{2}\)(4) = 12.73; \(p\) = 0.01). In particular, females reported General Semantic Memory and Single Episodic Events more frequently than males. Looking at Table 7, it is possible to note that most of the female memories were Single Episodic Events (48.7%) and the least reported type of memory were Perceptual Visual Fragments (0.9%). Males also reported Single Episodic Events more frequently (34.6%) and Visual Perceptual Fragments less frequently (2.8%). However, males reported more Perceptual Visual Fragments, Episodic Fragments, and Repeat Episodes than females.
