Factors of home dream recall: a structural equation model.

Previous research has indicated that personality factors such as openness to experience, creativity, visual memory, attitude toward dreams, and sleep behavior is related to home dream recall frequency (DRF). However, a study investigating all areas ...

Extra effort during memory retrieval may be associated with increases in eyewitness confidence.

When testifying in court, witnesses are motivated to try as hard as possible to give an accurate account. This study tested the proposition that extra effort by eyewitnesses during a memory test can lead to higher confidence ratings without any ...

Selective effects of triazolam on memory for emotional, relative to neutral, stimuli: differential effects on gist versus detail.

Benzodiazepines are known to reduce learning and memory performance, presumably through their facilitation of GABAergic neurotransmission, but the effects of these drugs specifically on memory for emotional material has not been addressed in humans. The ...

Distribution of targets in 400 eye-movement desensitization cases.

In a series of 400 patients undergoing Eye-movement Desensitization (EMD), patients rarely reported more than nine flashbacks or other focal targets, which may indicate the working memory limit. Eye-movement desensitization may operate by freeing working ...

Age and gender differences in cardiac reactivity and subjective emotion responses to emotional autobiographical memories.

This research reports age and gender differences in cardiac reactivity and subjective responses to the induction of autobiographical memories related to anger, fear, sadness, and happiness. Heart rate (HR) and subjective state were assessed at baseline ...

Predicting events of varying probability: uncertainty investigated by fMRI.

Many everyday life predictions rely on the experience and memory of event frequencies, i.e., natural samplings. We used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate the neural substrates of prediction under varying uncertainty based on a ...

Lateral asymmetry in the hippocampal response to the remoteness of autobiographical memories.

The time scale of hippocampal involvement in retrieving memories, particularly those more remote, is still a matter of debate. Some propose that the hippocampus is not involved in the retrieval of remote memories, whereas others assert that it is ...

The influence of schemas, stimulus ambiguity, and interview schedule on eyewitness memory over time.

The authors examined how a crime schema influenced the types of details witnesses recalled over multiple interviews that varied in delay before the initial interview and between subsequent interviews. Accuracy data showed that, in general, ...

Autobiographical memory specificity and affect regulation: an experimental approach.

This study investigated J. M. G. Williamss (1996) affect-regulation hypothesis that level of specificity of autobiographical memory (AM) is used to minimize negative affect. It was found that a negative event leads to more reports of subjective stress in ...

Recall bias and major depression lifetime prevalence.

BACKGROUND: Epidemiological studies have reported lifetime prevalence rates for major depression that have typically ranged between 10 % and 20 %, and have typically been fairly stable across age groups. This contradicts the intuitive expectation that ...
