Possible EMDR mechanisms include rapid eye movement sleep processing mechanisms and increased brain hemispheric communication. The model is the Adaptive Information Processing model.

Adaptive memory refers to the evolved capacity of human memory systems to preferentially encode and retain information that is pertinent to survival. This phenomenon, known as survival processing ...
