Our first foray into horror movies was recently published. Former grad student David Gregory used them as a means to study temporal memory for threatening events. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41965942/
Arousal and valence differentially shape temporal memory for naturalistic events - PubMed
While emotional arousal and negative valence both alter episodic memory, their contributions to different facets of temporal memory remain unclear. Here, we examined two components of temporal memory ...
