Faculty Mentor: Rubin
Research Interests:
I research three lines of inquiry to elucidate the cognitive processes involved in autobiographical remembering: (1) Given that autobiographical memory by definition involves the person remembering, how does our self-system influence our memory of the stories of our lives? (2) Remembering, especially for autobiographical events, is often a social process. How does the environment influence our memory of the past? and (3) How do the details of the event influence the subjective experience that accompanies remembering? - Keywords:
- autobiographical memory, Autobiographical memory, episodic memory, Episodic memory, familiarity, identity, life script events, narrative, Post-traumatic stress disorder, PTSD, schema, self-concept, self-knowledge, self-system
