What do we gain (or lose) by considering déjà vu a part of autobiographical memory?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 November 2023
Abstract
I argue the relationship between déjà vu and autobiographical memory is not continuous, but more akin to a path diagram. The starting points might be overlapping, but eventually the paths diverge dependent on whether there is memory content to be retrieved. I am worried that considering déjà vu as part of autobiographical memory solves more problems than it creates.
