Contents:
Michael P. Toglia -- Section 1 Adaptive Memory: What Are the Factors that Drove the Natural Selection of Memory? -- 2. Evolution, Memory, and the Role of Self-Referent Recall in Planning for the Future / Stanley B. Klein -- 3. Remembering Cheaters / Axel Buchner -- 4. Living, Dying, and Remembering: The Encoding Processes Involved in Survival Processing / Joshua Hart -- Section 2 Adaptive Memory: A Special Case for Survival Information and Processing? -- 5. Adaptive Memory: Survival Processing, Ancestral Relevance, and the Role of Elaboration / Mary H. Derbish -- 6. On the Domain-Specificity of Survival Processing Advantages in Memory / Anne M. Cleary -- 7. Survival Processing, Attention, and Interference / Stephanie Kazanas -- 8. Cognitive and Social Factors in the Study of Survival Memory / Eileen M. Dacey -- 9. Survival Processing Does Not Improve Paired-Associate Learning / Brock R. Brothers.
Meike Kroneisen -- Section 3 Adaptive Memory in Distinctive Populations -- 11. Memory Errors in Adaptive Recollections / Johan van Beers -- 12. The Adaptive Value of Survival Processing in Childhood Trauma Victims / Tom Smeets -- 13. Recognizing Others: Adaptive Changes to Person Recognition Throughout the Lifespan / Fiona N. Newell -- 14. Perceptual Versus Conceptual Memory Processes in a Chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) / Kelly W. Mosteller -- 15. The Development of Adaptive Memory / David F. Bjorklund -- 16. Adaptive Memory: Controversies and Future Directions / James S. Nairne.
Summary: The goal of this volume will be to present the best theoretical and empirical work on the adaptive nature of memory. It features the most current work of a number of cognitive psychologists, developmental psychologists, comparative psychologists, and cognitive neuroscientists who have focused on this issue. This is important because much of this work is necessarily interdisciplinary and is therefore spread out across a range of journals and conferences.
