Abstract

The processes of memory and recollection are critical for understanding the human mind. Although considerable research has been done with respect to these issues, much of what is known about memory and recall is theoretical in nature. Thus, while modern psychologists and medical scientists have a basic rudimentary understanding of how memory and recall occur, quantification of these processes remains an elusive task.With the realization that memory and recall represent such notable challenges for quantification, there is a clear impetus to examine what research has been published on these subjects such that a more integral understanding of memory and recall can be garnered. To this end, this investigation examines scholarly literature on the phenomenon of flashbulb memory. Through a careful consideration of what has been written about this subject and the research that has been conducted in this area, it will be possible to elucidate the overall complexity of memory and recall. Further, by examining the specific issues surrounding flashbulb memories, it will be possible to demonstrate that the special mechanism hypothesis of flashbulb memory creation is not valid.
