Flashbulb Memory Research Paper
Two weeks ago Jim began to recount a vivid, flashbulb memory from his childhood of the day he found out that his parents won the lottery. He describes the exact place he was sitting, the board game he was playing, and even the people he was with at the time. Recently, Jim discovered that he was wrong about his recall of that very day. I plan to explain why Jim had such an inaccurate memory of this experience by defining a flashbulb memory and describing the factors that play when false memories occur.
