Involuntary memory was identified by the pioneering memory
researcher Hermann Ebbinghaus more than a century ago, but it was
not until very recently that cognitive psychologists began to study
this memory phenomenon. This book is the first to examine key
topics and cutting-edge research in involuntary memory. Topics
discussed include involuntary memories in everyday life, across the
life span, and in the laboratory; the special ways in which
involuntary memories sometimes manifest themselves such as in
voluntary remembering, or in clinical syndromes like posttraumatic
stress disorder; and a number of theoretical treatments.
The authors present innovative research on topics such as
autobiographical memory; consciousness and memory; aging and
memory; depression; and psychosis. With a balance of research and
applications, this work will educate and ignite research and ideas
on this important topic.
