医学诊断通常取决于患者回忆和报告其病史的能力。在这项研究中，104人记录了3个月的健康日记，记录了健康事件的发生率，频率，数据，持续时间和严重程度（症状，疾病，伤害，卫生专业人员的访问和药物治疗）。在日记保存期后立即或在1个月或3个月后测试对所记录事件的记忆。观察年龄、性别、文化程度、健康状况、焦虑程度、保持时间等因素的影响。在自由召回程序中，只有47%的健康事件被召回。在自由回忆之后，对两种不同的干预进行了比较。使用识别清单产生的回忆的29%的被遗忘的事件，但与认知访谈程序，只有6%的被遗忘的项目被检索。
Medical diagnosis often depends on the ability of patients to recall and report their medical history. In this study 104 people kept health diaries for 3 months, recording the incidence, frequency, data, duration, and severity of health events (symptoms, illnesses, injuries, visits to health professionals, and medication). Memory for the events recorded was tested immediately after the diary-keeping period or at 1 month or 3 months later. Effects of age, gender, education, health status, anxiety, and retention interval were observed. With a free recall procedure only 47 per cent of health events were recalled. Following the free recall two different kinds of intervention were compared. Use of a recognition checklist yielded recall of 29 per cent of the forgotten events but with a cognitive interview procedure only 6 per cent of the forgotten items were retrieved.
