The term 'episodic memory' refers to our memory for unique, personal experiences, that we can date at some point in our past- our first day at school, the day we got married. It has again become a topic of great importance and interest to psychologists, neuroscientists, and philosophers. How are such memories stored in the brain, why do certain memories disappear (especially those from early in childhood), what causes false memories (memories of events we erroneously believe have really taken place)? Since Endel Tulving's classic book 'Episodic Memory' (OPU, 1983) very few books have been...

The question of whether memories can be lost, particularly as a result of trauma, and then "recovered" through psychotherapy has polarized the field of memory research. This is the first volume to attempt to answer the question, bringing together leading memory researchers and clinicians to share their views. It offers a unique and timely summary of the theories of memory recovery, and how false memories may be created. Some of the first findings relating to the phenomenal characteristics of memory recovered is reported in detail, suggesting important avenues for new research. Theories of...

This text provides a review and critical evaluation of research into flashbulb memories. The opening chapters explore the encoding view of flashbulb memory formation and critically appraise a number of lines of research that have opposed this view. Subsequent chapters review and appraise more recent work which has generally found in favour of the flashbulb concept. Evidence from clinical studies of flashbulb memories is then considered. Neurobiological models of memory formation are briefly reviewed, and one view suggesting that there may be multiple routes to memory formation is explored in...

This special issue of Memory celebrates 30 years of research into the levels of processing (LoP) framework. Evaluations are provided by leading researchers, including the original proposers, Craik and Lockart. In addition new findings are reported and extensions of, as well as alternatives to, LoP are described. Overall the collected papers show that much remains to recommend the processing approach to memory and fruitful theorizing with empirical consequences are readily derivable from the LoP framework.
