Tulving's ideas are identified in the Specification, so you need to know about the different types of declarative and non-declarative memory, examples of them in use as well as how to apply them and evaluate the theory as a whole. Clive Wearing does NOT feature in the Specification so the Exam will never ask you a question about him. However, he is a good example of the differences between types of long term memory.

Don't start with description: start with evaluation.
Evaluation point + evidence = "logical chain of reasoning"
4 of these "logical chains" are enough for a 8-mark question
Conclusions are good if they are balanced - so long as you don't repeat yourself!
