Sharing memory and identity across generations
Sharing memory and wisdom across generations
The role of memory in supporting adolescents' sense of place and past is not well understood, but older adults offer a wealth of life stories and wisdom that they can share with younger generations. This in-depth pilot study positioned Australian high school students as oral historians to interview older Australians about their lives. Oral historian training and materials were provided, and pre- and post-intervention measures of adolescents' sens…
I Remember Where the Galaxies Are and You Remember Where the Stocks Are
Theoretical descriptions of transactive memory systems (TMSs) have postulated that intimate couples develop coordinated systems for sharing and distributing cognitive labour. Although such systems have been well-studied in research on organisational teams, little research has examined how TMSs operate in the context of intimate relationships. In the current study, we used semi-structured interviews to ask 39 older long-married couples to describe…
Effects of collaboration on the qualities of autobiographical recall in strangers, friends, and siblings
Recalling autobiographical memories with others can influence the quality of recall, but little is known about how features of the group influence memory outcomes. In two studies, we examined how the products and processes of autobiographical recall depend on individual vs. collaborative remembering and the relationship between group members. In both studies, dyads of strangers, friends, and siblings recalled autobiographical events individually …
Is there memory in the head, in the wild
Using hypnosis to model Fregoli delusion and the impact of challenges on belief revision
Couples as socially distributed cognitive systems
In everyday life remembering occurs within social contexts, and theories from a number of disciplines predict cognitive and social benefits of shared remembering. Recent debates have revolved around the possibility that cognition can be distributed across individuals and material resources, as well as across groups of individuals. We review evidence from a maturing program of empirical research in which we adopted the lens of distributed cognitio…
Developing the Sense of Agency Rating Scale (Soars)
Two experiments report on the construction of the Sense of Agency Rating Scale (SOARS), a new measure for quantifying alterations to agency. In Experiment 1, 370 participants completed a preliminary version of the scale following hypnosis. Factor analysis revealed two underlying factors: Involuntariness and Effortlessness. In Experiment 2, this two factor structure was confirmed in a sample of 113 low, medium and high hypnotisable participants. T…
A laboratory analogue of mirrored-self misidentification delusion
Transmitting delusional beliefs in a hypnotic model of folie à deux
Memory, ecological validity and a barking dog
The study of memory, like our journal Memory Studies, crosses many discipline boundaries, aiming broadly to examine the 'social, cultural, cognitive, political and technological shifts affecting how, what and why individuals, groups and societies remember' (http://mss.sagepub.com/). In editing this journal, my co-editors and I have considered contributions from memory researchers and scholars across a range of fields. For instance, in our first i…
We Remember, We Forget
Transactive memory theory describes the processes by which benefits for memory can occur when remembering is shared in dyads or groups. In contrast, cognitive psychology experiments demonstrate that social influences on memory disrupt and inhibit individual recall. However, most research in cognitive psychology has focused on groups of strangers recalling relatively meaningless stimuli. This study examined social influences on memory in groups wi…
