Psychological Terms - Acquaintanceship knowledge
A classification of knowledge that is separate from both declarative knowledge (knowing that) and procedural knowledge (knowing how). It encompasses awareness of individuals, locations, and objects, and while it may incorporate declarative knowledge, it is not obligatory, as exemplified by the recognition of a color, scent, or visage without the ability to articulate specific facts about them. The Welsh philosopher Bertrand Russell (1872–1970) addressed this category of knowledge in The Problems of Philosophy (1912), and it remains inadequately comprehended within psychology.
