RE: The Fallacies of our Brain: False Memories

in #psychology7 years ago

I read somewhere that every time we access a memory the memory get's changed a bit. This would be the cause of happy memories of past times, the memories that have been remembered dozens of times turn into roses and sunshine.

Sort:  

You "change" your brain. More specifically, you strengthen the connections which fire to access the memory.
