Many of these accusations concern events that occurred several years prior to their announcements and trials. Drawing upon a compilation of real-life sexual assault cases and psychological science on recall and sexual trauma this book provides an analysis of memory reports of sexual misconduct including inappropriate comments behaviors harassment and assault. It compares these memories with other types of memory such as flashbulb memories co-witness conformity memory and autobiographical memory. <i>Memory and Sexual Misconduct</i> helps readers interpret the role of emotion the level of detail and the possible distinction between someone remembering a past event and believing the past event occurred.</p><p>By providing a thorough evaluation of the likelihood that misconduct memories are accurate and investigating factors that affect this accuracy <i>Memory and Sexual Misconduct</i> is an invaluable text to both the criminal justice system and the general public particularly as sexual misconduct allegations of past events continue to come to light.</p>
