Study Notes

Déjà Vu

Déjà vu is the feeling of having encountered an identical situation in the past, without knowing exactly when or where.
The most common attribution for the memory of déjà vu is a neurological anomaly, particularly in areas responsible for memory and perception.
The feeling of déjà vu typically lasts for a short period, ranging from a few seconds to a minute.
What is distinctive about déjà vu is the strong sense of familiarity, despite knowing that the current situation has not occurred before.
The memory of déjà vu may be tied to the brain's memory and retrieval systems, including the hippocampus and temporal lobe.
