“…Briefly, repressors compared to non-repressors: (a) have poorer recall of negative autobiographical memory from childhood and adulthood (e.g., Davis, 1987;Myers & Brewin, 1994;Myers & Derakshan, 2004b, 2009); (b) have worse recall of negative material in both intentional and incidental learning paradigms (Myers & Brewin, 1995;Myers, Brewin, & Power, 1998;Myers & Derakshan, 2004a,c); and (c) use an avoidant style of information processing (Derakshan, Myers, Hansen, & O'Leary, 2004;Fox, 1993;Geraerts, Merckelbach, Jelicic, & Smeets, 2006). However, Geraerts et al (2006) found that repressors were better than all non-repressor groups in suppressing/ avoiding anxious autobiographical memories immediately after the task, seven days later they had the highest number of intrusive autobiographical memories.…”
