The Social Function of Memory: Shaping Realities across Contexts
Subject Area: Cognitive
In this symposium, the authors of three studies will present their findings on the ways in which people influence each other’s memory in conversation. Two studies focus on individual-level memory sharing in which group membership or relationship status is salient, while the third examines mnemonic convergence across a social network.
