@theXIXth because what you’re reading is? probably uninteresting to you so it’s harder to recall it.

@theXIXth It could also be that you have a more emotional connection with the movie you have watched. I imagine that what? you remember are the stand-out scenes. I don’t know if you know a study by Bahrick Bahrick and Whittinger testing people’s recall ability when presented with pictures of their graduating class in a year book?They found that even after 48 years, recognition rates were still around 75% while recall over much shorter lengths of time of non emotive data was MUCH lower.

@theXIXth It could be that you are able to obsorb the information if you consider the chapters in the book as scenes of a movie. Using you’re imagination to sense the story’s feeling, sights, sounds touches etc. You may pause for any amount of time to? do this. It is a book afterall and will probably be there when you finish spacing out. Let me know how it goes.

@fairhillnorrie You suffer from Infantile amnesia and an impediment of what psychologists call ‘working memory’, working memory is essential the complex functions of STM, you can’t remember how to get to A to B due to your visio spatial sketchpad within your STM not being able? to function properly. I could go in more detial with you through PM’s but youtube has a word limit.. sorry

@WatchCharmedOnline 1. Is infantile amnesia, this affects what psychologists call the episodic memory store of our Long Term Memory. Episodic memories describe any memories about past experiences and events that have occurred in an individuals life. As you? age, these events and experiences experience an influx and thus impedes this memory store.

@LeannanSilmat Seems like a classic case of a paranoid schizophrenia,? go to a doctor.

continuing my comment here:
On the other hand, retention is based? for example on a desired to learn; think of the same test as above, but this time with an interest in it; the test can easily be passed, and associated information absorbed and retained.
Retention goes in direct proportion to intelligence, which by the way, is another misconceived concept by the typical psychologist.
jjojjorge says:

Continuing comment, memory and retention are not related at all. Think of cramming an academic test, you pass it, but after a relative while, the information is basically gone, although technically not completely because some minute associations remain, but not anything relevant. The preceding is related to memory.?
jjojjorge says:

Memory is one thing, retention is another. In reality, memory is only the bank or empty container, retention is? the complex process. Thus calling memory a cognition aspect is wrong, the wrongness goes further when cognition is attributed to mere neuro-physiological happenings. The? absurdities of the typical psychologist go even further, when for example, it is stated by some “study” that a monkey is more intelligent than humans (All this based on their way-off misconceptions) .

@fairhillnorrie
From the examples you have given, it seems normal.
1. Nearly no one can remember the times when they’re growing up.
2.? Reading a book nd forgetting it is very natural too.

Could someone help me out? I’ve recently been having a couple of memories that couldn’t have happened in reality. I’ve even managed to gather evidence that tell me that they are false memories. But still, even though I know for a fact that they are not true memories, they feel so totally true and real. And these? memories are serious in nature: if they were true, it would have serious consequences for my life. I’m so distressed by this. What’s happening to me? Am I the only one?
