Repressed Memories / True Or False?
[ send me this paper ]
A 12 page paper that explores the controversy of repressed memories and the recalled memory therapy that brings repressed memory to the conscious mind. Thousands of cases of adults 'recalling' traumatic events, usually sexual abuse as children have been brought to light in the past decade. Did the abuse really happen or is it a figment of the adult's mind fostered by incompetent therapists? This is the core of the controversy. Case studies and other research reports both for and against the issue of repressed memory are discussed. The writer concludes by supporting one side and justifies that decision.

Savant Intelligence And Precognition
[ send me this paper ]
This 8 page paper discusses the mystery of savant behavior. A small percentage of developmentally disabled and/or autistic individuals exhibit skills, knowledge or talent in one specific area at the genius level in spite of their inability to function in other areas. These individuals have never been taught the knowledge or trained in the skill and yet, they exhibit ability that is nothing short of remarkable. How these individuals gained the skill or knowledge is a question that has mystified psychologists and theorists for all time. This paper explores some of the theories that might explain savant behavior, including precognition. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
