Detailed explanation-1: -It’s a Quasi-experiment since independent variable was present when participants applied.
Detailed explanation-2: -To study the biological basis of flashbulb memory.
Detailed explanation-3: -The sample size is small and culturally biased. Research indicates that individualistic cultures are more likely to have flashbulb memories than collectivistic cultures. This makes the findings difficult to generalise to the world population as a whole.
Detailed explanation-4: -What does cultural research seem to indicate about FBM? Kulkofsky has found that collectivistic cultures have fewer personalized flashbulb memories than individualistic cultures. In the case that the memory is based on a national tragedy, the rate of FBMs was the same.
