| Research Abstract |
The objectives of this study were to examine cognitive mechanisms underlying involuntary memory by using an interruption method, and to explore ways to control it in everyday life. Results obtained in experiments revealed the determinants of frequency of involuntary memory. For example, the level of arousal and anxiety were correlated to the frequency of involuntary memory. On the basis of these results, we discussed what mechanisms underlie involuntary memory and how to control it.
