Flashbulb memories (FBMs) are detailed recollections of the context in which people first heard about important events. The present study investigates three models of the formation and maintenance of FBM. Two models have previously been proposed in the literature (Brown & Kulik, 1977; Conway et al., 1994). A third model of FBM that integrates theories of FBM and recent developments in the field of emotions is proposed. The present study compares these three competing models by investigating the FBMs that Belgian citizens developed upon learning of the unexpected death of their king Baudouin. Structural equation modeling revealed that, as compared to the two previously proposed models, the third model, which takes into account emotional processes, better explains FBM.
闪光灯记忆（FBMs）是人们首次听说重要事件时对当时情境的详细回忆。本研究调查了三种关于闪光灯记忆形成和维持的模型。此前文献中已提出两种模型（Brown & Kulik，1977；Conway等人，1994）。本文提出了第三种闪光灯记忆模型，该模型整合了闪光灯记忆理论和情感领域的最新进展。本研究通过调查比利时公民在得知国王博杜安意外死亡时形成的闪光灯记忆，对这三种相互竞争的模型进行了比较。结构方程模型显示，与之前提出的两种模型相比，第三种考虑了情感过程的模型能更好地解释闪光灯记忆。
