This is your memory for experiences or events that happened to you
at any time in the past—from many years ago to just a few minutes
ago. When you call up these memories, you travel backwards in time
so you can experience what happened in the past—or at least what
you remember happened, since this recollection is subjective.2 Thus,
someone else might have a different memory of what happened and
a video recording might show a still different reality. So while your
memory may well be accurate, it is also subject to distortion for various
reasons, such as your faulty encoding of this memory in the first
place or a later modification of the memory to conform to your selfperception
of how you are now. Then, too, your memory might be
modified by later suggestions about what you experienced; this
sometimes happens in conversations and interviews, as when a cop
interviews a witness or suspect with leading questions that shape
what the person remembers.
