Research on applied memory is one of the most active, interesting
and vibrant areas in experimental psychology today. This book
provides descriptions of cutting-edge research and applies them to
three key areas of contemporary investigation: education, the law
and neuroscience. In the area of education, findings from the study
of memory are described which could have a major impact on testing
practice, revision techniques for examinations and teaching basic
literacy and numeracy. In applications to the law, recent findings
shed new light on the dynamics of child abuse investigations, the
status of traumatic memories recovered after long delays and a
further challenge for the eyewitness: change blindness. Finally, in
neuroscience, contributions cover the frightening question of
whether patients can remember incidents during surgical operations
under anaesthetic, the unexpected impact of handedness and rapid
eye movements on memory proficiency and the status of deja vu:
mystical experience or memory error? These accounts of recent
research on applied memory have been written by leading experts in
the field from both Europe and America, with the non-specialist in
mind. They will interest students who wish to extend their reading
beyond core material in cognitive psychology, graduates on more
specialised courses in education, forensics and neuropsychology,
and all those who wish to enrich their knowledge of the
contemporary frontiers of applied memory research.
