Repression: A unified theory of a will-o'-the-wisp
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 29 (5):523-523 (2006)
| Abstract | By conflating Freudian repression with thought suppression and memory reconstruction, Erdelyi defines repression so broadly that the concept loses its meaning. Worse, perhaps, he fails to provide any evidence that repression actually happens, and ignores evidence that it does not. | |||||||||
