Affect and Accuracy in Recall : Studies of 'Flashbulb' Memories (Emory Symposia in Cognition)

The fourth Emory Symposium on Cognition brought together everyone who has done research on memories of the Challenger explosion, in order to gain better understanding of the phenomenon of flashbulb memories: How do flashbulb memories compare with other kinds of recollections?
