“…Though each item was answered twice, once for the first few weeks after death and currently, only items answered for the first weeks after death were analyzed. Research has found conflicting results about the accuracy of memory recall (Bradley, Mogg, & Williams, 1994;Cahill, Gorsky, Belcher, & Huynh, 2004;Hasher, Zacks, Rose, & Doren, 1985), but much of the literature suggesting that long-term memory is questionable has measured participants with depression (Bazin, Perruchet, de Bonis, & Féline, 1994;Jackson & Smith, 1984;Raes, Verstraeten, Bijttebier, Vasey, & Dalgleish, 2010;Watts & Cooper, 1989); we did not have reason to assume that participants, as a whole, were depressed. The set of 10 items were thus submitted to principal component analysis (PCA) followed by direct obliman rotation with the delta parameter set at zero.…”
