壓抑記憶(英語:Repressed memory)是一個備受爭議的心理學理論。[1]該學說認為,一些創傷事件的記憶,可能存在潛意識中,但意識沒法回憶出來。雖然這些潛意識記憶沒法從正常意識中回憶,但仍會透過潛意識的力量,影響個人的行為、情感及情緒反應[2]

儘管人們普遍認為外行和臨床心理學家會相信壓抑記憶的現象,[3]很多心理學研究對記憶是否會出現抑壓仍有非常大的爭議。[4][5][6][7][8][9] 一些心理學專家認為, 壓抑記憶可以透過心理治療 (或可以幾年或幾十年後自然回復,如經歷到一些事件觸發壓抑記憶被回復),[10] 不過,大部分專家認為,使用恢復記憶療法,有可能會創造錯誤記憶,而非真正回復被壓抑的記憶。[11][12][8] 根據美國心理學會, 在沒有其他佐證下,要分辦壓抑記憶及錯誤記憶基本是沒有可能。 [2]
