摘要
Some of the significant factors that influence earlier memories of people and encourage them to repeat these activities are discussed. It has been observed that people remember earlier events and memories of their lives when they travel away from their homes. It is observed that increasing distance from earlier memories influence people to remember them, encouraging them to repeat them when provided with an opportunity. People remember these events when they achieve a certain distance from them in terms of space and time. It is also observed that several memories fade away after a certain period of time. People tend to forget both positive and negative memories when remembering and making efforts to repeat them. There is considerable evidence to show that positive and negative memories fade away at rates from memory and that affective elements fade differently in comparison with cognitive elements.
