Memory is modified through the act of retrieval. Although retrieving a target piece of information may strengthen the retrieved information itself, it may also serve to weaken retention of related information. This phenomenon, termed retrieval-induced forgetting, has garnered substantial interest for its implications as to why forgetting occurs. The present study attempted to replicate the semi...

Forgetting, one part of the brain's memory management system, provides balance to the encoding and consolidation of new information by removing unused or unwanted memories or by suppressing their expression. Recent studies identified the small G protein, Rac1, as a key player in the Drosophila mushroom bodies neurons (MBn) for active forgetting. We subsequently discovered that a few dopaminergi...

Forgetting is an adaptive function of humans. The forgetting process in humans occurs when new information is required to be stored in the memory and old information needs to be “forgotten”. In organizations, information produces new information and as a result, a huge increasingly enriching amount of information needs to be managed. Can the forgetting function of humans be adopted in socio-phy...

In the human brain, forgetting is a very effective way of focusing on the important things, while unstressing irrelevant details. In the ForgetIT project, we use forgetting and other processes in the human brain such as the context-driven reconstruction of memories as an inspiration for creating intelligent methods for joint information and preservation management. In this paper, we present sel...

This study was conducted to investigate the mediating role of Social Loafing and job insecurity in impact organizational forgetting on commitment government agencies. For this purpose, for measuring forgetfulness, a questionnaire by Aledo Ruiz et al. (2013), insecurity, Ouyang (2015), social embarrassment employees, using Karadal & Saygin commitment. The standard Allen Meyer (1990) used researc...

This mini review aims at summarizing the current state-of-the-art of empirical unlearning and intentional forgetting (U/IF) research individual, team, organizational level. It adds to an earlier incorporates 31 recent studies from 2019 2022. The reveals that predictors based on organization’s adaptation context (e.g., competitive intensity), organization level leadership exploration activities)...
