Abstract Remembering that one intends to do something is distinguished from remembering what one intends to do, and crucial design requirements for research on the former are elucidated. All of the few published studies on remembering intentions are classified into four possible research paradigms and are reviewed for design adequacy in the light of these crucial requirements. It is concluded that the best, but perhaps most difficult to implement, studies in the domain are those conducted under laboratory control in which one must remember to perform a single, repeated or multiple instances of natural‐seeming behaviour that one perceives to be entirely irrelevant to the purposes of the study in which one is engaged.
