Most of us
would agree that culture and background can be a regulator for intrapersonal
and interpersonal interactions. Autobiographical memory is memory from past experiences,
and this includes all of the contextual relationships associated with culture
and interpersonal relationships. Understanding a person's cultural interactions and the history of one’s
social patterns are essential when designing environments that help stimulate
positive memory events for the cognitively declined person. When visiting a
friend or a loved one, who is memory impaired, consider sharing artifacts of their
culture and from their previous patterns of socialization.
