Comments to the editor or papers with no abstracts
These are listed in reverse chronological order: the more recent ones are listed first.
In the older literature, there were other terms used for déjà vu: paramnesia, fausse reconnaissance (French), Erinnerungsfälschung or -täuschung (German) and so on. You'll encounter these if you scroll down to the early abstracts (i.e., before 1910 or so).
For those that were published without an abstract (or for which we could not locate one) we have tried to provide some information from the paper or book. We are sure we have not done justice to many of them and would be grateful for suggestions for amendment or correction. There are still many that we have not been able to find abstracts for or make comments on.

A la recherche du . . . deja vu
[In search of the deja vu phenomenon] [in Dutch]
Sno HN, Linszen DH
Tijdschrift voor Psychiatrie 31(8): 518-532, 1989
De déjà-vu-ervaring is een verschijnsel dat frequent en niet alleen bij (psycho)pathologische stoornissen kan voorkomen. Het kan omschreven worden als de beleving een bepaalde situatie of sensatie al eens eerder meegemaakt te hebben, terwijl men zich vrijwel gelijktijdig het onmogelijke ervan realiseert en niet in staat is het precieze tijdstip van de vermeende oorspronkelijke gebeurtenis in het verleden te achterhalen. In dit artikel worden eerst de epidemiologische en fenomenologische aspecten beschreven. Vervolgens worden de etiologische factoren en psychopathogenetische verklaringen besproken. Hierbij wordt een verklaringsmodel geïntroduceerd, dat gebruik maakt van de holografie als model voor het geheugen.
