Moving Beyond Male or Female: Examining the Roles of Gender and Sexual Identity in the Development and Transmission of Autobiographical Memory

Sunday, May 29, 2022 · Chicago, IL

Oral · Cognitive

Although gender has been associated with the emergence and development of autobiographical memory (AM), less is known about whether AM is related to other aspects of gender and sexuality. The proposed symposium addresses this knowledge gap, focusing on relations between AM and gender-typical traits, gender identity, and sexual identity.
