- 1Chapter 7: Autobiographical Memory Autobiographical Memory across the LifespanThe lifespan retrieval curve can be divided into three:
Childhood amnesia (Birth – 5): Children under five often have detailed autobiographical memories, but these later become inaccessible. This could be the result of changes in the goal hierarchy of the working self. The Freudian view relates to the intense emotions experienced at this time. Explaining childhood amnesia is still a challenge for researchers.
The reminiscence bump (RB) (10-30): Although this is a robust finding, an issue for researchers is that recall may be influenced by giving dates to memories, resulting in respondents getting ‘stuck’ in a particular time period. The RB has been shown in the recall of films, music, books and public events. Memories of this time are more accurate, and are judged as more important by respondents.
Recent memories: These are still accessible; older memories may be lost through decay or interference. However, people can retrieve older autobiographical memories when asked to do so, so fewer memories being recalled between recent memories and the RB may be the result of bias in remembering rather than forgetting. Nonetheless, forgetting is likely over time.
