dfsa - reflections photography memory ideas

i first looked at the process of memory

http://www.simplypsychology.org/memory.html

i found out there are 3 stages of memory.

but from researching this i started thinking about the fallacy of memory and how it can be 100% reliable


3 types of situations can cause memory loss

• disease
• trauma
• neglect

Disease-Related Causes:

• Alzheimer’s Disease
• Other Dementias
• Parkinson’s Disease
• Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

Trauma-Related Causes:

• Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)/ Concussion
• Stroke: Clot or Aneurysm
• Anoxia and Hypoxia
• Brain Tumor and Masses
• Diabetes
• Transient Global Amnesia
• Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT)
• Emotional Trauma, including PTSD
• Depression
• Epilepsy
• Adverse Effects of Prescription Drugs
• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder (COPD)

Neglect-Related Causes:

• Alcohol Abuse
• Smoking
• Drug Abuse
• Stress
• Herpes Encephalitis
• Improper Nutrition

i then wanted to explore why memory is never fully reliable 

i looked at the problems of eye witness testimony
