For the first 1–2 years of life, brain structures such as the limbic system, which holds the hippocampus and the amygdala and is involved in memory storage, are not yet fully developed. Research has demonstrated that children can remember events from before the age of 3–4 years, but that these memories decline as children get older.Research has shown that children have the capacity to remember events that happened to them from age 1 and before while they are still relatively young, but as they get older they tend to be unable to recall memories from their youngest years. Psychologists differ in defining the offset of childhood amnesia. Some define it as the age from which a first memory can be retrieved around 3-4 but can range from 2 to 8 years Others define offset of childhood amnesia as the age at which memories change from general memories to more specific autobiographical events; this occurs at approximately 4.5 years of age. This may be due to children's developing accurate knowledge of their own memory. It is generally agreed there is no set age that people should be able to remember events from.Changes in encoding, storage and retrieval of memories during early childhood are all important when considering childhood amnesia. Research shows differences between gender and culture, which is implicated in the development of language. Childhood amnesia is particularly important to consider in regard to false memories and the development of the brain in early years. Proposed explanations of childhood amnesia are Freud's trauma theory (which is not supported by evidence and is generally discredited), neurological development, development of the cognitive self, emotion and language."@en }
