Title: TV or not TV? Does the immediacy of viewing images of a momentous news event affect the quality and stability of flashbulb memories?

Subjects: Flashbulb memory, Mass media, Social belonging, Learning, Image analysis, September 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001
Abstract: The flashbulb accounts of 38 participants concerning the September 11th 2001 terrorist attack reported at both 28 hours and 6 months following the event were examined for quantity, quality, and consistency as a function of the time lapse between first learning of the event and initial viewing of media images. The flashbulb accounts of those who reported seeing images at least an hour after learning of the event differed qualitatively, but not quantitatively, from accounts of participants who reported seeing images at the same time as or within minutes of learning of the event. Delayed viewing of images resulted in less elaborate and generally less consistent accounts across the 6-month interval. The results are discussed in terms of factors affecting flashbulb memory formation and individual differences in connectedness to the event. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
