It is possible for memories of abuse to have been forgotten for a long time to be remembered and it is possible to construct pseudomemories for events that never occurred.
Memories for events and the actual event may not be isomorphic.
Memory commission errors might occur in psychotherapy only when one or both of two conditions are met: (1) the patient is highly suggestible; and (2) a particular pattern of systematic interpersonal pressure is applied.

 Hartmut Blank: Remembering discrepant information ...
Their memory holds only the distractor item as well as its source, that is, they know that what they remember is not strictly what the memory test asks for.
Simple and combined memory states were identified with memory test A as follows: each properly underlined response term was taken as evidence that the respective response was available to the subject; conversely, false underlinings and "don't know" responses indicated the non-availability of the response.
Memory state 2 is treated in the same way as in experiment 1 for the Loftus standard test, that is, perfect performance based on inferences is assumed.

 IPT Journal - "Biases of Retrospection"
One focus of this research was on the relationship between current mood states and memory; one possibility is that recollections of one's parents are influenced by a current state of depression or nondepression; another is that people who are prone to depression recall their parents differently from those who are not (the nondepressives).
It is possible, for example, that when the depression-prone people become depressed, their memory of their parents' behavior loses the "rosy glow" that appears to be a concomitant of "good mental health," and that the reports are in fact more accurate than when the people are not depressed.
Given a biasing effect of mood on memory, people who are distressed as adults tend to remember distressing incidents in their childhood.

With only two memory pipes, the Fujitsu VP-200 can function in memory-to-memory mode only if one of the input operands is already in a vector register, or if one of the operands is a scalar, and not at all if the vector stride is different from one.
The Hitachi, with four memory pipes, can function in memory-to-memory mode with up to three input operand streams and one result stream; add to this the Hitachi's ability to automatically process vectors that are longer than its vector registers, and the Hitachi can be viewed as a formidable memory-to-memory processor.
As a result, memory reference is not a limiting factor since results are retained in vector registers during the operation.

 Improve memory with cognitive science and mind training techniques
Ebbinghaus brought learning and memory into the laboratory (1890’s through the 1920’s) where he very carefully devised various experiments to measure, codify and quantify various aspects about how we remember and how we do not remember.
However, repressed memories may continue to unconsciously influence people’s attitudes and behaviors and may result in unpleasant side effects, such as unusual physical symptoms and slips of speech.
For this reason, many memory researchers are skeptical of repression as an explanation of forgetting, although this verdict is by no means unanimous.

The dual encoding theory of memory suggests that memory depends on approrpiate use of both the STM and the LTM hierarchically.
In the information-processing model of memory, when we need to work on information that we have previously learned, we retrieve it back to the sensory memory unit for active processing.
In an experiment on memory, subjects who slept in between studying a list of nonsense syllables and being tested did better than subjects who engaged in normal, waking activities between studying and being tested.

Note that the list of memory abilities impaired in amnesic subjects corresponds to what is called Declarative memory.
This means that the memories are available to more than the original brain area that processed the information (or the printed word would never be recognized when spoken, the memory would be stuck in visual cortex).
For these sorts of declarative memories, we need to be able to learn and retrieve relationships between bits of information that are stored in different brain areas: this requires the medial temporal lobe and diencephalon because they have inputs and outputs to many other brain areas.

 Anxiety Disorders SIG Events   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Most studies examining memory for threat in specific phobias adopt relatively straightforward explicit memory paradigms that are subject to a number of confounds, such as demand characteristics and an inability to isolate the particular memory process (e.g., encoding, retrieval) that might be biased by fearfulness.
A memory bias toward threat would be demonstrated if fearful individuals exhibited higher rates of false recall and recognition of threat words relative to neutral words compared to nonfearful individuals.
In contrast, a memory bias against threat would be demonstrated if fearful individuals exhibited lower rates of false recall and recognition of threat words relative to neutral words compared to nonfearful individuals.

The registers are not intended to be a list of all children in the area who have suffered or are likely to suffer significant harm but are those for whom there is a need for a child protection plan.
In fact, once the first stage of recovery has provided such a foundation, some people realize that thinking and talking about their abuse memories is not necessary to achieve their goals, at least in the short term, and/or that those memories are no longer disrupting their life and no longer of much interest to them.
For those who do choose to focus on abuse memories, or need to because the memories are still disrupting their lives, there are several therapeutic methods available for "processing memories" in the second stage of treatment.
