Abstract
SummarySalmon and Reese review literature on parent–child conversations about children's negative experiences and consider how impoverished parent–child reminiscing about child sexual abuse may affect children's memory for that trauma. To extend the application of developmental psychopathology theory to the study of reminiscing and memory, the present commentary had three overarching goals. First, evidence supporting relatively accurate retention of memories for trauma in contrast to impairments in non‐traumatic autobiographical memory among maltreated children is reviewed. Second, the influence of mother–child reminiscing about everyday emotional experiences on maltreated children's autobiographical memory and socio‐emotional functioning is considered. Third, translational implications are discussed.Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
