Preferred term

cue-word method

A method for the study of autobiographical memory developed by Galton (1879) and completed by Crovitz (Crovitz & Schiffman, 1974; Crovitz & Quina-Holland, 1976). The general principle of the method is to present words that serve as cues to retrieve autobiographical memories. Every memory is then dated.
