GALL, Monique Heinen  y  UEHARA, Emmy. Childhood autobiographical memory in college students of Universidade Federal Rural do Rio de Janeiro (UFRRJ). Est. Inter. Psicol. [online]. 2018, vol.9, n.3, pp.24-37. ISSN 2236-6407.

The autobiographical memory (AM) are a set of memories that the individual possesses in relation to his own life history. The present study aims to investigate AM in childhood in 60 university students of the Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro. The questionnaire was composed of sociodemographic information and 15 open questions. Among the 60 interviewees, 35 (58.3%) reported recalling the memory in more detail against 25 respondents (41.7%) who said they remember only succinctly. It was observed that 43.3% obtained the age range of 5-6 years as the age of the first MA. The results are relevant for the expansion of the knowledge regarding the AM in childhood. Still, the study of these memories can help in the better understanding about the constitution of the subject, as well as the influence of the emotions in this process of storage and memory evocation.
