Memory in the Courtroom
Memory in the Courtroom
Memory is a critical issue in most criminal and civil cases that attorneys need to consider when crafting their theory of the case. This is a topic I have written and lectured on for over thirty years. The goal of this web resource to to provide you with an accessible review of memory encoding, storage and retrieval.
- “Principles of Memory” offers a general introduction.
- "Topics in Memory" provides a more in-depth dive into the fundamentals of how memory works (and doesn’t). I’ve made it a point to quote several authoritative sources on each topic. It’s redundant, but it provides you with additional perspective.
- "Quirks of Memory" is an interesting, brief exploration of peculiar research findings. But don’t be fooled, these quirks could play a very real role in your case.
