Dr. Nalaini Sriskandarajah, chairperson of the panel, introduced the authors: Dr. Carlo Rodini from Milan who would present his paper, “Research and Internalization,” and Dr. Joan Tolchin of New York who would present her paper, “Engaging Resistant Adolescent Patients.” Initially, Rodini's reading of passages alternated with their translation into English by Dr. Sergio Dazzi.
Rodini said that Robert Stickgold demonstrated that even subjects with damaged hippocampuses retain information though without their being aware of the remembrance. This may also be observed in children; the hippocampus requires almost seven years to develop. This is a manifestation of a specific kind of memory called implicit or nondeclarative, which can be influenced by a past experience without the subject's awareness of remembering. This was pointed out by Schacter in 1996. Rodini focused on implicit memory as a way of “taking inside,” following Joseph Sandler's usage in 1987. Three different scientific fields investigate nonaware memory: neuroscience, memory research, and infant research. This memory is different from symbolic process.
