Research

In the early stages of his career as a scientist Read's research was mostly in the area of verbal learning. [10] [11] He also studied recognition and recollection of words and faces. [12] [13] From the early 1980s he started focusing his research more towards memory in legal settings such as eyewitness memory. [14] [15] [16] In the 1990s the debate about the reality of repressed memories was a point of interest for many cognitive psychologists, Read included. In 1994 he published a paper together with Stephen Lindsay called "Psychotherapy and memories of childhood sexual abuse: A cognitive perspective". [17] This paper was published in the journal Applied Cognitive Psychology and has been cited over 240 times by other researchers and reviewers. [18] The paper also created a lot of discussions at the time it was published. [19] [20] [21] Since then Read has conducted more research in the area of false/recovered memories. [22] [23] [24] More recently Read has published more articles in the forensic field, mostly about the reliability of eyewitness testimonies and identifications. [25] [26] [27]
