Extraordinary Memories for Exceptional Events
Not all memories are created equal. Our memories for some very exceptional events seem to stand out in our minds, and as such they may form the very core of who we are.
This book summarizes theories and data that provide insight into these extraordinary memories for exceptional events.
Topics explored include flashbulb memories, the influence of emotion on memory, the bizarre imagery effect, the humor effect, the serial position effect, and the isolation effect.
