For those suffering from emotional disorders such as posttraumatic
stress disorder (PTSD) or depression aspects of the personal past
can dominate conscious experience in tenacious and toxic ways. For
example, memories of distressing autobiographical experiences can
intrude into awareness as thoughts or images, as flashbacks or
nightmares, each laden with unwanted and painful affect. This
special issue of Memory focuses on two broad themes. The first is
the nature of autobiographical remembering of the personal past
-what are the characteristics of such memories? And to what extent
are they phenomenologically distinct from other types of
autobiographical remembering? The second theme concerns varieties
of difficulties in remembering emotional experiences from complete
amnesia to lack of specificity of autobiographical recall. This
volume draws together the world's leading theorists and researchers
on these varied issues to provide a broad overview of the
cutting-edge work in this field.
