Social interactions are a major factor in organizing the earliest experiences in the memory system. In the current study, we tested the role of parental reminiscing on the relationship between parental attachment and recollection of earliest memories. The present study focused mainly on possible mediating properties of parental elaboration between...
In the present study, we aimed to investigate how two types of self-licensing (functional and dysfunctional self-licensing) are related to unhealthy snack consumption. Self-licensing refers to the act of using justifications before gratifications and has been associated with higher snack consumption. Previous research has found that while functiona...
In 2020, the world was amid a global health crisis—the COVID-19 pandemic. Nations had varying levels of morbidity and mortality and adopted different measures to prevent the spread of infection. Effects of the pandemic on spontaneous (rather than voluntary) past and future thoughts remain unexplored. Here, we report data from a multicountry online...
Reminiscence bump refers to the increased recall of events from adolescence and early adulthood. It is a robust phenomenon for personal events, while the evidence for the bump has been inconsistent for public events. The present study addressed lifespan distributions of public events in a nationally representative sample of adults ( N = 1200) in Tu...
The COVID-19 pandemic created a unique set of circumstances in which to investigate collective memory and future simulations of events reported during the onset of a potentially historic event. Between early April and late June 2020, we asked over 4,000 individuals from 15 countries across four continents to report on remarkable (a) national and (b...

Current review focused on the effects of emotionality and valence of experienced events on their memorability and the phenomenology of remembering both in its theoretical context and in terms of empirical evidence. Different ways how remembering operates in post-traumatic stress disorder, flashbulb memories, and mood disorders are discussed using e...
Araştırmanın üç temel amacı bulunmaktadır. Bunlar (1) toplumsal olaylara dair episodik (EB) ve semantik bellek (SB) süreçleri ile heyecanlanma arasındaki ilişkiyi ve bu ilişkinin yaş grupları arasında farklılıklar gösterip göstermediğini, (2) öz-değerlendirmelere dayanan heyecanlanma ile fizyolojik ölçümlerle saptanan heyecanlanma düzeyi arasındaki...
Common processes involved in remembering and predicting personal and public events have led researchers to study public events as a part of autobiographical memory. In the present study, we asked for past events and future predictions and examined the temporal distribution and factors that made these salient in event representations. A sample of 15...
Yapılan araştırmalar kendine izin vermeyi (self-licensing) fonksiyonel ve disfonksiyonel olarak ikiye ayırmıştır. Bu ikisi arasındaki temel fark diyet yapan bir insanın ara sıra yaptığı kaçamakları nasıl algıladığıyla ilgilidir. Fonksiyonel kendine izin vericiler bu kaçamakları diyetlerine daha motive bir şekilde devam etmelerine yardımcı bir şey o...
The current study examined earliest memories of young and middle-aged adults in comparison to a recent autobiographical memory and a free-report one from any life phase. These three types of memories were compared in terms of their memory characteristics such as vividness, emotionality, importance, confidence, and rehearsal frequency. A total of 31...
The book contains 13 chapters on different aspects of autobiographical memory ranging from research methods to psychopathology.
There has been evidence that depression is associated with difficulties in implementing adaptive strategies for emotion regulation. In the present research, we examined the effect of mild to moderate levels of depression in a nonclinical undergraduate sample and tested whether depressive affect impairs the implementation of the emotion regulatory f...
We investigated how different perfectionism types might influence the recollectional features of the failure memories.
Results indicated the following:
•Both self-oriented and socially prescribed perfectionism had an effect on current intensity, suggesting for their role as an affect-determinant at the time of retrieval.
•Only socially prescribe...
The current paper aims to review the recent evidence on the neural correlates of emotion regulation. The review is organized into two main sections. First, cognitive models that neuroimaging research is based on are introduced with a specific emphasis on the process-specific explanations of emotion regulation. In the second section, neuroimaging re...
We investigated the relationship between components of rumination, brooding and reflection, and autobiographical remembering by testing whether voluntary and involuntary rehearsal mediated rumination-related variation in the sensory-affective and metacognitive features of memory experience. We focused on achievement and failure memories as both are...
Expectancy related symptom improvement has been documented in a number of studies and
accordingly there has been growing interest in the placebo effect. Despite significant
treatment outcomes, placebo-induced effects have been regarded as nonspecific psychological
factors and considered to result from subjective experience of healing. However,
neur...
Emotional deviation has been considered an essential factor in emotion regulation, in that, attempts to compensate for the deviation is reflected on cognitive processes. In the present study, we focused on autobiographical remembering and tested the functional role of memory on emotion regulation. We specifically examined the congruence effect in i...
In the current study, we proposed a latent constructs model to characterise the qualitative aspects of autobiographical remembering and investigated the structural relations in the model that may vary across individuals. Primarily, we focused on the memories of romantic relationships and argued that attachment anxiety and avoidance would be reflect...
This paper presents a review of the processes involved in the development of the theory of mind in children through an intersubjective approach. More specifically, the development of the theory of mind was examined in the context of the child-caregiver attachment. For this purpose, studies examining the links between various theory of mind variable...

We investigate personal and vicarious memories of the pandemic, focusing on event centrality, psychological distance, and recollection quality.
Through the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare professionals have experienced profound negative effects of various events, both personally and vicariously. The current research investigated how remembering those events is linked with the psychological effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on healthcare professionals.
We teamed up with a number of researchers all around the world and to examine investigate memories of the corona virus outbreak and the subsequent lockdown.
As a multi-national study, it also open the possibility of examining country-wise differences in memories (e.g., how and when it began), and how similar memories are within and between nations. We also investigate episodic future thinking to understand how global pandemic shaped our perception of the future events.
