Type de matériel :
9
Childhood amnesia refers to the adults’ inability or difficulty to remember events from their early childhood. Research in developmental psychology highlighted four different explanatory frameworks respectively based on age-related changes in memory, cognitive self, autonoetic consciousness, and narrative skills. This article reviews the theoretical and empirical arguments supporting each hypothesis and, following Nelson and Fivush (2004), advocates for an integrative view accounting for the emergence of autobiographical memory.
