A comparison of adult memory for a single versus an instance of a repeated stressful event

This project aims to investigate adult memory for repeated stressful events. 'Repeated events' refers to a type of event that has been experienced on more than one occasion and all consist of a common underlying structure. Repeated events are a common occurrence in such crimes as family and domestic violence. In this project we are specifically interested in investigating whether the memory reports for those that have experienced a repeated event contain less accurate information than those that have experienced a single event.
