infantile amnesia. This refers to the phenomenon where adults have limited or no memories of events that occurred during the early years of their lives, typically before the age of 2 or 3. Memories formed during this period are often not well-retained, and the accuracy of detailed memories from infancy is generally questioned by experts.
