The purpose of this study was to review the research regarding autobiographic memory supporting nostalgia. First, triggers of nostalgic feeling were introduced from everyday life and were used in experimental conditions. Second, the mood congruent effect and mood incongruent effect were introduced, which are associated with nostalgic feeling. With a focus on distorted or reconstructed autobiographic memory, we then introduced research investigating the influence of retelling recalled autobiographic memory, the influence of attitudes of a listener during the telling of autobiographic memory, and the influence of conversation between two people on distortion or reconstruction of the autobiographic memory. Finally, future development in the research field was discussed.
