Autobiographical Memory Test  

Définition(s)

  • A task to assess the degree of specificity of autobiographical memories. Derived from the cue-word method, it is mostly used in a clinical setting, especially for assessing the existence of overgeneral autobiographical memories (for example, in people with depression and in post-traumatic stress disorder). Subjects are asked to generate autobiographical memories from positive (e.g. happy) or negative (e.g. injured) cue-words. Variations of this task exist (inclusion or not of emotionally neutral words, number of cue-words, instructions, etc.).
