response to Dr. Elizabeth Loftus' presentation on false memories and false beliefs – with particular reference to her study on dream interpretation
Phil Mollon
Dr. Loftus' work illustrates experimentally some of the conditions in which memory and beliefs about the past can be distorted through misinformation. Clinicians should aim to avoid or minimise the influence of suggestion and to be aware of the inevitable potential for suggestion in any therapeutic endeavour.
The focus of analysis is upon the patient's implicit procedural assumptions about self in relation to intimate others, particularly as these become discernible in relation of the analyst. Where reconstruction of development is considered, this is usually in relation to internal events within the patient's mind.
