Renaming edit

The title "Memory (social interactions)" implies that "memory" is an ambiguous term, and that this article is about the social interactions meaning of that term. Instead the article is about relations between memory and social interactions, so "Memory and social interactions" would be a better title. MartinPoulter (talk) 18:16, 1 June 2011 (UTC)Reply


Plan for Education Program edit

As a part of a project for our cognitive psychology class, Dadukes23, Cazee16, and I plan to edit the Memory and social interactions article based on our investigation of human's enhanced memory of cheaters. More specifically, we plan to edit under the subheading currently titled, Memory for Friends and Foes. We are especially interested in adding information pertaining to the existence, or lack-thereof, of a cheater detection module.[1] We would also like to state that psychologists have not yet found support for a cognitive module specific to enhanced memory for cheaters and credit this enhancement to more general adaptations.[2] This is all very general at the moment, and we will continue to update this plan as we progress in our assignment.

Hi Spgill42, and welcome to Wikipedia! Your first source seems to be a review, and a current one, so that is very good. However, your second source seems to be a WP:primary sources, and furthermore from 2002. Has nothing happened during the eleven years that have passed since Lawson wrote his/her article - and if not, why not? Lova Falk talk 15:06, 9 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
