创伤理论与错误记忆的争论——基于情节事件的错误记忆

The Controversy over False Memory and Contemporary Trauma Theory:False Memory Research for Episodic Event

创伤理论与错误记忆争论的关键是创伤理论坚持认为人们经历的悲惨事件或创伤记忆是被深深埋藏而无法被改变的,以至于在创伤治疗的过程中可以被唤醒或被恢复,从而更好地介入和治疗;而错误记忆研究则认为那些创伤情节或记忆是可以被改变甚至被凭空创造出来的,以至于被唤醒的记忆从某种程度上来说并不是完全可信的。与基于图片再认或者是词汇认知基础上的研究范式不同,基于情节事件的错误记忆使更多的研究者开始对创伤理论和错误记忆之间的争论寻求更多的理解。

Substantive progress has been made in understanding of false memory,especially,many theoretical models,which have established the foundation for the false memory research towards episodic memory,were proposed by cognitive research. Some studies based on the autobiographical event revealed that the misleading message that follows the initial event played an important role in changing people's memory. The results have made significant contribution to the development of many fields,including false memory,trauma therapy,and even legal studies. From the perspective of the debates between trauma studies and false memory,it is far more significant to review these latest progresses as the extension of the previous basic research.
