In this study, the effects of repetition and context on autobiographical memories was explored. In contrast to the more contrived and controlled approaches used in the memory literature, this study attempted a systematic investigation of personal memories in a more natural context. Thirty-eight ethnically diverse college students participated. Subjects were randomly assigned to one of three social conditions and discussed their personal memories at three intervals, each a week apart. Memories were examined according to narrative structure and narrative cohesion. Results showed that memories did not become more structured and cohesive over time. Contrary to expectations, evidence showed that subjects' narratives were most structured and cohesive at the first telling, particularly with regard to orienting and temporal information. Results revealed that social context influences the structure and cohesion of personal memories. Subjects speaking to the same person over time included more affective descriptions in their memories, whereas those speaking to a different person each time provided more orienting information. Implications of these findings for future investigations of autobiographical memories is discussed.
