Isi artikel

In this commentary, I compare psychology’s treatment of forgetting, especially the works of Ebbinghaus, Bartlett, Ballard, Freud, and modern researchers, to Connerton’s approach. I suggest that as the stimuli have become more complex (moving from nonsense syllables and lists of words to stories and real-life events, as found, for example, in clinical and forensic settings), memory theory in psychology becomes increasingly constructivist and motivational, and converges in significant respects with historicalsociological formulations of forgetting, such as Connerton’s.
