Question

The type of dissociative amnesia in which people forget only the disturbing or stressful events which took place in a given time period, but remember everything else about that time period, is called ______ amnesia.

Answer 1

Localized amnesia

Step-by-step explanation:

Localized amnesia is a type of dissociation amnesia. It affects the specific area, part or knowledge of a person living in a certain period. In this type of amnesia, memory loses a certain type of memory or a specific type of trauma.

For instance, a criminal loses the specific period when does he robbed at gunpoint but the rest of the activity does remember is an example of localized amnesia.
