[1]Lifespan_Retrieval_CurveHow much do you remember about
yourself? Typically, the age between 0-5 is marked by what's
called "childhood amnesia"; between 10 and 30 years old, is
what's call the Reminiscence Bump, where memories are easily
retrieved as that's often the time we form our identity of "Who
We Are".* Beyond the age of 30, typically people remember what's
recent but form fewer Reminiscence Memories. But, everybody is
different.* Some people have a stronger Reminiscence Bump
between 5-13 for example.* Some people don't have childhood
amnesia and can remember events before the age of 5 more
easily.* Some people have reminiscence bumps throughout their
lives. Still, it's interesting to see what's "typical" and
compare yourself to it and see what's the same, and what's
different for you.* Surprising to me, though, is the *counting*
of memories: How much do we *really* remember about ourselves?*
How much do you remember about _yourself_? What will you
remember about today, last year, and the times in your life yet
to be?
