Answer:Constructive processing

Step-by-step explanation:

Constructive processing is the psychological process of retrieving the past using information and situations to give meaning to the memory on why an event may have happened or why people may have behaved the way they did which can be different from two individual's perspective of the memory of the same event. . This is to say that our Memories are mostly constructs, influenced by individual perception and may not accurately depict the actual event.

That is why from the question, when you reminisce about your childhood, you get into an argument with your brother claiming innocence victim of each other, because no two people can construct the same memory and each will give different meaning to events that happened in a recalled event according to their perspectives.
