Henri is suffering from amnesia after a terrible crash on his motorcycle. While his old memories are still intact, he is not able to create new memories. Which kind of amnesia is Henri displaying?

Mild head injuries typically do not cause lasting amnesia, but more-severe head injuries may cause permanent amnesia. Another rare type of amnesia, called dissociative (psychogenic) amnesia, stems from emotional shock or trauma, such as being the victim of a violent crime.
