过度概括的自传体记忆，当被要求提供一个人生活中的具体实例时，回忆事件类别的倾向，已被证明是抑郁，自杀和创伤个体的特征。在目前的研究中，过度概括记忆与压力性生活事件的发生相互作用，以预测随后的抑郁症状在非临床样本的大学生。控制最初的抑郁症状，那些表现出高概括记忆和高频率的压力生活事件的学生在4-6周后有更多的抑郁症状。过度概括的记忆与从自传体文章中挑选的特异性指数相关，但与预期相反，与自我报告的思想抑制，解离，回避或侵入措施无关。
Overgeneral autobiographical memory, the tendency to recall categories of events when asked to provide specific instances from one's life, has been shown to be characteristic of depressed, suicidal, and traumatized individuals. In the current study, overgeneral memory interacted with the occurrence of stressful life events to predict subsequent depression symptoms in a nonclinical sample of college students. Controlling for initial depression symptoms, students who showed both high overgeneral memory and high frequencies of stressful life events had more depression symptoms 4-6 weeks later. Overgeneral memory was correlated with an index of specificity culled from autobiographical essays but, contrary to expectation, was uncorrelated with self-report measures of thought suppression, dissociation, avoidance, or intrusion.
