\u00a0This is especially important as events associated with emotions \u2013 as many crimes or other events that bring witnesses to court are \u2013 are remembered more strongly.\u00a0 As Genova puts it, \u201cLife events that are infused with emotion are what we tend to remember long term.\u00a0 But that doesn\u2019t make them reliable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Let me quote some passages:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\">\u00a0 Your episodic memories are chock-full of distortions, additions, omissions, elaborations, confabulations, and other errors.\u00a0 Basically, your memories for what happened are wrong.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\">\u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\">To begin with, we can only introduce into the memory creation process what we notice and pay attention to in the first place\u2026We only encode and later remember certain slices of what happened\u2026From the get-go, our episodic memories are incomplete.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\">\u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\">\u00a0 In the process of consolidating an episodic memory, your brain is like a sticky-fingered, madcap chef.\u00a0 While it stirs together the ingredients of what you noticed for any particular memory, the recipe can change, often dramatically, with additions and subtractions supplied by imagination, opinion or assumptions.<\/p>\n<p>REMEMBER, then, confirms the lessons about the limited reliability of eyewitness memory.\u00a0 It offers the reader \u2018hard science\u2019 support for this along with a humane understanding of how we can survive and indeed thrive by knowing memory\u2019s limits and learning tools to enhance and support it.\u00a0 Read REMEMBER for your own satisfaction and to learn how to work toward improved accuracy of recollection; but for those who are in the trenches of investigation and litigation, use this book to \u2018remember\u2019 how imperfect an act \u2018remembering\u2019 is.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Memory \u2013 how good is it?\u00a0 The law favors memory \u2013 we make witnesses tell their stories months or years after an event but preclude use of their diaries or memos to the file.\u00a0 And memory reliability gets \u2018politicized\u2018 \u2013 those who prosecute often default in favor of trusting memories long after the event, while<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":31,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"generate_page_header":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,6,11],"tags":[],"coauthors":[238],"class_list":["post-3026","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-advocacy-and-evidence-blog","category-criminal-law","category-trial-advocacy"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Can We Trust Memory?
