Anomalies of Autobiographical Memory

Retrograde Amnesia, Confabulation, Delusional Memory, Psychogenic Amnesia, and False Memories

  • Chapter
Recollections of Trauma

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSA,volume 291))

Abstract

Autobiographical memory, its deficits, and its relationship to other aspects of memory, has become a topic of burgeoning research interest during the past fifteen years (Rubin, 1982; Conway, 1990; Conway, Rubin, Spinnler & Waagenaar, 1992). In this chapter, I propose to review findings where autobiographical memory shows deficits or anomalies — in retrograde amnesia, confabulation, delusional memory, and psychogenic amnesia. I will then try to relate these observations to the debate concerning so-called false memories.
