我们通过检查30个月、36个月和48个月大的婴儿对需要急诊室治疗的创伤性事件的最初和6个月的回忆，调查了学龄前儿童对创伤性事件的记忆中是否存在侵入。研究的基本发现是：(1)在6个月的访谈中产生干扰的学龄前儿童的数量随年龄的增长而下降；(2)只有最年幼的学龄前儿童在6个月时产生的干扰比最初可靠地更多；(3)干扰信息的数量不随年龄的变化而变化；(4)正确回忆目标创伤事件的信息量随年龄的增长而增加，并且不受任何年龄的干扰的影响。学龄前儿童能够回忆起与目标事件有关的大量信息，无论他们是否产生了干扰，这暗示了他们在延长的保留时间间隔内对现实生活中创伤记忆的真实性。
We investigated the presence of intrusions in preschoolers’ memories for traumatic incidents by examining 30-, 36-, and 48-month-olds’ initial and 6-month recall of traumatic events that required emergency room treatment. The basic findings were (1) the number of preschoolers who produced an intrusion at the 6th month’s interview declined with age, (2) only the youngest preschoolers produced reliably more intrusions at 6 months than initially, (3) the amount of intruded information did not vary with age, and (4) the amount of information correctly recalled about the target traumatic event increased with age and was not affected by the presence of intrusions at any age. That preschoolers were able to recall considerable information concerning the target event, regardless of whether they did or did not produce intrusions, has implications for the veracity of their memories of trauma in real-life situations over extended retention intervals.
