Memory Distortions and Their Prevention Hardback
Edited by Deborah L. Best, Margaret J. Intons-Peterson
Part of the Challenges and Controversies in Applied Cognition Series series
Hardback
Description
This volume explores the well-documented phenomena of memory distortion in a variety of settings, as well as how it can be ameliorated or prevented altogether.
The editors have recruited some of the very best researchers in the applied cognitive field to address these issues.
These authors examine distortion from several angles: fuzzy trace theory, face identification, memory deficits with age, collaborative influences on distortion, sociocultural influences on memory, retention of procedural and declarative information, and ignorance of medical and other information.
The final chapter addresses the issue of cognitive technology, in general. Because of the surge of interest in applied cognitive psychology and in the memory distortion issue in particular, this book will be valuable to many applied and basic researchers.
