This book collates the work of world-leading researchers on déjà vu and other dissociative states of memory and presents a snapshot of the state of the art in research on these strange phenomena.

Déjà vu is the eerie feeling of familiarity for something that you know you have not experienced before—the dissociation between what you feel about your memory and what you know to be true about it. For centuries, it has inspired authors, artists and musicians, leaving psychologists struggling to keep up. The past 20 years though, has seen an explosion in research on déjà vu and related experiences. From attempts to generate déjà vu in the laboratory, to the study of patients who present with unusual forms of the experience, cognitive psychology has begun applying a range of both novel and established techniques to study these psychological experiences that have long captivated the public imagination.

Déjà vu and Other Dissociative States in Memory is an insightful resource for scholars and researchers of Psychology including Cognitive Psychology, and Neuroscience. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Memory.

Akira O’Connor is Senior Lecturer in the School of Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of St Andrews, USA. His research interests include memory decision-making, particularly how we come to decisions about our memories when faced with multiple sources of conflicting information. His work takes both cognitive and neuroscientific approaches. Chris Moulin is Professor at the Laboratoire de Psychologie et NeuroCognition (LPNC UMR 5105) at the Université Grenoble Alpes, France. His research interests include the cognitive neuropsychology of memory, particularly subjective aspects of memory function, including déjà vu, metamemory and memory awareness.
