CONT

Hypermnésie. Lorsque la mémoire est testée à plusieurs reprises (par exemple, au cours d’interrogatoires répétés), le phénomène d’hypermnésie correspond à une augmentation du nombre d’éléments rappelés sur les différents tests. Le nombre d’éléments nouveaux doit surpasser le nombre d’éléments oubliés à travers les différents essais. Ainsi, la réminiscence est une condition nécessaire mais non suffisante de l’hypermnésie.
