(Principal Investigator, Cannell, Charles, John Scott, and Donald Wolfe)

Summary

This study focuses on the ability of people to recall major events in their lives and place these events into a particular time frame. The 558 respondents, all between the ages of 21 and 64, were asked when they bought their house and car, when they last observed a death or illness in the family or among friends, and whether they recalled the assassination of President Kennedy. The respondents were also asked about their favorite holiday. Demographic information was also included in this survey.
