One of the most controversial concepts in modern psychology is the concept of “repressed memories”, which refers to the idea that traumatic experiences – such as sexual abuse – can be unconsciously blocked for many years such that the individual does not know they were abused, and later recovered in pristine form. Critics often point to false memory implantation during psychotherapy as a more likely explanation for clinical cases of recovered memories, as seminal work has demonstrated that implantation of false childhood memories is possible through simple techniques. The validity of repressed memories has constituted the core of the so-called “memory wars”. […] Belief in the plausibility of being unable to remember a highly memorable event of childhood sexual abuse was strongly represented among both Danish participants, American participants and among many of the Danish professional groups. […] belief in repressed memories is deeply rooted in modern Western societies […] despite many years of research documenting that simpler explanations often can account for such phenomena.
