Preferred term

event-cueing paradigm  

Definition

  • A method for studying the organization of autobiographical memory, particularly the embedding of a memory in an event cluster. The task involves asking participants to generate autobiographical memories from cue words (e.g., food, music, restaurant). These memories are then used as cues to recall other related memories. Participants are then asked to indicate the type of relationship between the cueing memory and the cued memory it elicited (e.g., do they involve the same person or persons? Is one event the cause of the other?) Finally, they are asked to put a date on each autobiographical memory and indicate its personal significance.
