	Retrospect Express (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		In film as an art form, a retrospective is a representative selection of films of a specific director, actor or other member of crew, or pertaining to a specific cinematic genre or era.
		Retrospectives are common part of film festivals, but may also be presented by local movie theaters.
		Retrospective II ''Retrospective II: 1981 to 1987'' is a compilation album by Canadian rock band Rush, released in 1997 (see 1997 in music).

	IPT Journal - "Biases of Retrospection"
		Retrospecting, they believed that their attitudes nine years previous were very close to their current one, much closer than they in fact were.
		This bias was so strong that an equation set up to predict subjects' recall of their 1973 attitudes gives almost all weight to their 1982 attitudes, and virtually none at all to the attitudes they actually expressed in 1973 (with the important exception of the students' overall liberal versus conservative ratings).
		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.

	Dr. GROHOL's Mental Health Page - Consumer Reports Article (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Retrospective reports are less valid than concurrent observation, although an exception is worth noting: waiting for the rosy afterglow of a newly completed therapy to dissipate, as the CR study does, may make for a more sober evaluation.The retrospective method does not allow longitudinal observation of improvement across time in the same individuals.
		Retrospective observation is a flaw, but it may introduce random rather than systematic noise in the study of psychotherapy effectiveness.
		But retrospective reports of emotional states will always be with us, since even in a prospective study that begins with a diagnostic interview, the patient retrospectively reports on her (presumably) less troubled emotional state before the diagnosis.

	Retrospective Conversion (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Retrospective determinism is the logical fallacy that because something happened, it was therefore bound to happen.
		For example: :''When he declared himself dictator of the Roman Republic, Julius Caesar was bound to be assassinated sooner or later.'' This argument gives no logical grounds to conclude Caesar's assassination was the only possible outcome, or even the most likely outcome of the circumstances.
		This fallacy is often used as a build-up to a hasty generalization: because something happened in given circumstances, it was not only bound to happen, but will in fact always happen given those circumstances.

		Retrospective observation is a flaw, but it may introduce random rather than systematic noise in the study of psychotherapy elffectiveness.
		The distortions introduced by retrospection could go either in the rosier or more dire direction, but only furher research will tell us if the distortions of retrospection are random or systematic.
		If retrospection was a fatal flaw, CR would have given up the reader’s survey,ethod long ago, since reliability of used cars and satisfaction with auto lines, physicians, and insurance companies depends on retrospection.

	Rosy retrospection - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A kind of memory bias, rosy retrospection refers to the finding that subjects later rate past events more positively than they had actually rated them when the event occurred.
		Generally, most subjects some time later reviewed the events more favorably than they actually did while experiencing them.

	Doctor Pascal - XIV. (By Emile Zola)
		And although she could not smile, it filled her with sweet emotion to see the beautiful child, so plump and rosy, with his mouth still wet with milk, whose gaze had been arrested by the sunbeam full of dancing motes.
		In this retrospection she was clearly conscious of the gradual change that had taken place within her.
		During the first few weeks she had suffered from a fissure, and even now her breast was sensitive; but she smiled, notwithstanding, with that peaceful look which mothers wear, happy in giving their milk as they would give their blood.

	Monthly Review: 20th century AD
		It is, surely, impossible for us, standing ninety-three years later at the end of that twentieth century, to read these words without sensing the enormous contrast with what has actually come to pass in our times.
		However, it is not only the calendrical vantage point of the approaching centenary which would prompt such a mood of retrospection.
		For the apparently sudden and complete collapse of historical communism, culminating in the formal dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, has generated a much deeper sense of an ending, of a historical period now closed and moving irrevocably into the past.

		Lastly and best of all, her open countenance, serene and slightly rosy, the purity of her blue eyes, that a look too eager might have wounded, expressed illimitable sympathy, the tenderness of angels.
		At the other chimney-corner, in an arm-chair, the octogenarian sister, like in all points save clothes to her brother, sat listening to the reading of the newspaper and knitting stockings, a work for which sight is needless.

		A theory of temporal adjustments of the evaluation of events: Rosy Prospection and Rosy Retrospection
		Using principles of information processing, we identify the key cognitive processing mechanisms that we believe produce the "rosy effect." We then develop a regression model that describes how people evaluate events.
		We conclude with a discussion of the implications of the rosy effect for personal effectiveness and well-being.

		Her color went and came, until a deep rosy blush settled on each cheek, and her tongue found utterance.
		Of all the ingenious modes of torture that have ever been invented, that of solitary confinement is probably the most cruel--the mind feeding on itself with the rapacity of a cormorant, when the conscience quickens its activity and feeds its longings.
		Happily for Adrienne, she had too many positive cares, to be enabled to waste many minutes either in retrospection, or in endeavors to conjecture the future.

		Furthermore, although the directive does not specify any form of retrospection, the Bill provides that parental leave will apply to parents of children born on or after 3 June 1996.
		One law may be worthy in itself and not unduly burdensome, but it is the cumulative effect of all the legislation which we ignore at our peril if we are to maintain jobs.
		Part of the attitude behind the call for paid parental leave is the same attitude that believes everything in the Irish garden is rosy, that it will continue to be so and that nothing will go wrong.

	Defence of Poetry 2003: Raoul Schrott
		By nature inclined to nostalgic retrospection he had lamented the demise of the ancient Aoides – the singers, seers and prophets invested by the gods and history – whose tasks had given them a monopoly on the transmission of culture.
		These three have one characteristic in common whose significance, though practically negligible with regard to oral poetry, has come to the fore as poetry has become more self-referential: the retrospect occasioned by their essentially repetitive structure.
		Rhyme is but an echo of a pre-determinant word-sound; the refrain takes us back to the beginning; the euphony of the lines implies the monotony of the eternally recurrent.

		It then became evident that the traveler had seen her, and was not averse to her interest in his movements, although he had not changed his attitude of savage retrospection.
		In the preoccupation of his thought and his breathless retrospect, the young man had ridden faster than he intended, and he now checked his panting horse.
		The influence of the night and the hushed landscape stole over him; his thoughts took a gentler turn; in that dim, mysterious horizon line before him, his future seemed to be dreamily peopled with airy, graceful shapes that more or less took the likeness of Susy.

		Certainly, Winston’s criticism that this film does not present an appropriate treatment of the situation is influenced by this factor.
		Indeed, the rosy picture the film portrays for these people’s future, as being resolved in the form of large, tenament-style apartment buildings, seems directly determined by the fact that this housing was designed by the gas company that financed the film.
		Winston’s notion that this is a “problem moment film,” and thus presents no viable intervention into a problematic economic/political system, seems appropriate, although there are other ways it succeeds.

		In the sunset it had a rosy hue and its edgings were fire-red.
