In the context of memory retrieval, this ability to recall events from certain phases of his life is known as  the reminiscence bump.

Explanation:

The reminiscence bump is the tendency for older adults usually over forty years, to have enhanced recollection of events that occurred during their adolescence and early adulthood.

They usually remember things between the 10-30 years period.

A.This is  reminiscence bump. And it is the ability of adults from 40 years  and above to have a vivid recollection of youthful and early  adulthood events of their life time.  Generally individuals in the course of life store memories of episode of  the experiences of particular events,objects person at  a particular place and time, and the brain combines this with the general factual or explicit  events of life to give detailed memory of life events.This is autobiography memory.

However, because of dynamic nature of man, this autobiography memory is not static, it fluctuates  with life events, shifting the identity, position  and time of event in the course of life. Thus affecting the combination of previously stored memories of life event with  place and position(episodic memories) with the present factual word (explicit memories)of the present moment. Therefore   reminiscence bump is deu to inconsistencies in the autobiography  memory.

Therefore this alteration explains reasons for difficulty in recollection of   certain events in the first and fourth decades of life.
