Explanation:

For the first question, sensory memory involves automatic encoding of sensory information like sights and sounds. Episodic memory is about personal events and often requires effortful encoding. Semantic memory is for general knowledge and also not mainly automatic. Implicit memory includes skills and habits which can be formed through repeated exposure but not as automatic - in - nature as sensory memory. For the second question, negative reinforcement is the removal of an aversive stimulus to increase a behavior. In the case of John smoking marijuana to reduce pain (aversive stimulus), it is negative reinforcement. The other examples are punishment (Marty and Peter) or positive reinforcement (Gwen getting money).

First question: Sensory memory is stored primarily through automatic processing.
Second question: John frequently smokes marijuana because it reduces the pain from his multiple sclerosis.
