MENDEZ CASAS, Lander et al. Collective memory and social representations of history in Americas, Europe and Palestine. Revista de Psicología [online]. 2023, vol.41, n.2, pp.1023-1065. Epub 14-Jul-2023. ISSN 0254-9247. http://dx.doi.org/10.18800/psico.202302.014.
This article reviews and synthesizes 10 free-recall studies on collective memory carried out in Latin America, Europe, and Palestine. Results show the high prevalence of the topics of politics, collective violence and warfare, but around 50% of recalled events were appraised as positives, disconfirming a negative bias in collective memory. However, in Palestine most of the events were entirely or partially negative, reflecting country’s conflictual situation. The analyzed studies confirm a partial socio-centrism: in Latin America and Palestine most events were national. A meta-analysis confirms a generational effect in 24/100 historical events. Negative historical events were related to low social wellbeing in Palestine. Results are discussed in the framework of collective memory processes and social representations of history.
