The Seven Sins of Memory : ウィキペディア英語版 | The Seven Sins of Memory
''The Seven Sins of Memory: How the Mind Forgets and Remembers'' is a book (ISBN 0-618-21919-6) by Daniel Schacter, former chair of Harvard University's Psychology Department and a leading memory researcher. The book revolves around the theory that "the seven sins of memory" are similar to the Seven deadly sins, and that if one tries to avoid committing these sins, it will help to improve one's ability to remember. He argues that these features of human memory are not necessarily bad, and that they actually serve a useful purpose in memory. For instance, persistence is one of the sins of memory that can lead to things like post traumatic stress syndrome. However persistence is also necessary for long-term memory, and so it is essential. ==Overview== Schacter asserts that "memory's malfunctions can be divided into seven fundamental transgressions or 'sins'."〔D. Schacter. ''The Seven Sins of Memory'', Houghton Mifflin, 2001. p.4〕 These are transience, absent-mindedness, blocking, misattribution, suggestibility, bias, and persistence. The first three are described as sins of omission, since the result is a failure to recall an idea, fact, or event. The other four sins (misattribution, suggestibility, bias, and persistence) are sins of commission, meaning that there is a form of memory present, but it is not of the desired fidelity or the desired fact, event, or ideas.
