Is This Testimony Truthful, Fabricated, or Based on False Memory? (2014, background): “With multiple similar events, there is a tendency to form generic memory representations (e.g., Howe, 2000).”
When Autobiographical Memory Begins. (2003, background): “…because it (a) provides a general context (one that is common to all of long-term memory) in which to situate autobiographical memory and (b) explains the accumulation of autobiographical memories across childhood using a simple, basic-process mechanism, namely, storage maintenance (Howe, 2000).”
An associative-activation theory of children’s and adults’ memory illusions (2009, background): “Although such memory continuity effects have been observed in the development of accurate remembering (for a review, see Howe, 2000), the same has not been true for false memory illusions.”
Memory for traumatic experiences in early childhood (2004, background): “…perspective is that memory is a unitary process, that there is continuity in memory development, and that explicit and implicit forms of memory are both functional early in infancy (Adler, Gerhardstein, & Rovee-Collier, 1998; Howe, 2000; Rovee-Collier, 1997; Rovee-Collier, Hayne, & Colombo, 2001).”
