Autobiographical Memory Task

What to do: Click Start 3-minute timer, then add events from today using the Add event button. For each event, write a short description, note when it happened, rate its emotional tone, and score its vividness on the 1–5 scale (1 = very faint, 5 = very clear).

Think about: Were emotionally charged events easier to recall and did you rate them as more vivid? Compare your own pattern with what the textbook says about the role of emotion in autobiographical memory — and why we tend to remember high-emotion moments more clearly.
