On September 12, 2001, Psychologists Jennifer Talarico AndDavid Rubin (2003)

On September 12, 2001, psychologists Jennifer Talarico andDavid Rubin (2003) had Duke University students complete questionnaires about how they learned about the terroristattacks against the United States on the previous day. For comparison, students also described some ordinary event that had occurred in their lives at about the same time, such asgoing to a sporting event. Students were then randomly assigned to a follow-up session either 1 week, 6 weeks, or 32weeks later. The results indicated that:

A) both flashbulb memories and everyday memories improved over time.
B) the flashbulb memories, but not the everyday memories,
