One of the latest DVD Videos we have produced with Uniview Worldwide features Professor Elizabeth Loftus using real life cases to explore the ethics of implanting false memories and the practices of some psychotherapists. This fascinating material provides many examples of the malleability of the human mind and the potential for both harm and good that controlling memory can offer. Loftus references well-known studies such as "Lost in the Mall" and goes on to discuss the methodology of more recent studies exploring the implanting of false memories.
Following her professional involvement in a range of legal cases, Loftus expresses her concern about the dependence on eyewitness testimony in the justice system, as the rise of DNA evidence is now beginning to highlight just how unreliable this evidence can be.
This short video extract will give you a taster of the DVD. The full 'Loftus Speaks' DVD is available on-line from Uniview Worldwide Ltd, the leading supplier of psychology resources in the UK.

@2huntnfish Oh come on. "Molestation" covers a wide range of possible behaviors. By definition they are all abusive, but some more are more harmful than others. To presume that all molestation must lead to trauma is ridiculous.
The case for repressed memory in most cases is weak. Iatrogenic forces are behind most claims.

according to a 1996 Psychology today article. Dr. Loftus states that she herself was molested by a sitter as a child. What is interesting is that she felt it wasn't a big deal according to the article. If that is correct then perhaps all of this work that goes into discrediting victims of child abuse and repressed memory can be taken into perspective. If sexual molestation is no big deal to her , it might explain her less than unbiased stance.

Clinton's story was embellished for dramatic value due to campaigning. Memories of remote child/youth abuse is very real, it did occur. Pornographers who have drugged and abused children for the sake of profit are real. The costumes used during some of these scenes are nothing more than a cover, a cover of the rapists (actors) and of the victims as well. If the child ever remembers, the scenes described are too fantastic/ridiculous to believe.
Child abuse/rape is far more common than FMS.
