Autobiographical memories play a critical role in shaping personal identity, regulating emotions, and guiding future behaviour.

A total of 243 Grade 1 and 2 (the younger group) and Grade 3 and 4 (the older group) children participated, with an age range of seven to ten years. Specifically, 121 Chinese children were from Mainland China and …
