Neisser coined 'repisodic' memory in his 1981 John Dean paper, defining it as neither 'semantic' nor 'episodic' in Tulving's sense

Repisodic memory constructs one apparent episode out of a repeated series of events — distinct from remembering a single episode's gist

Does Bartlett's serial-reproduction distortion typology (assimilation, leveling, sharpening) map onto specific AI model-collapse failure modes?

A 2025 Patterns paper invokes Bartlett's leveling/sharpening/assimilation typology as a loose analogy for AI generation-loop convergence, without mapping the categories onto measurable failure modes

As of mid-2026, no located source operationalizes Bartlett's distortion typology as model-collapse metrics — including LLM 'broken telephone' papers that echo his paradigm but never cite him

Neisser checked John Dean's Watergate testimony against the Nixon tapes and found the details wrong but the gist right — coining 'repisodic' memory
