The use of list-learning paradigms to explore false memory has revealed several critical
findings about the contributions of similarity and relatedness in memory phenomena more …

The last decade has seen a flurry of experimental research into the neurocognitive
underpinnings of illusory memories. Using simple materials and tests (eg, recalling words or …

With a structure focused on process over memorization, best-selling author Dawn M.
McBride′ s The Process of Research in Psychology, Fifth Edition covers topics with a step …

Cognitive Psychology: Theory, Process, and Methodology engages students in the key
topics of study by making connections to situations and encounters in their day-to-day lives …

The nature of persisting spreading activation from list presentation in eliciting false
recognition in the Deese–Roediger–McDermott (DRM) paradigm was examined in two …

Four experiments investigated the origin of associative and categorical memory illusions by
comparing the effects of study and test associations on Deese/Roediger–McDermott (DRM) …

A robust finding is that brain activity in the lateral posterior parietal cortex (PPC) correlates
with successful recognition. Here we test whether the PPC has a causal role in memory …

Gist-based processing has been proposed to account for robust false memories in the
converging-associates task. The deep-encoding processes known to enhance verbatim …

Sleep strengthens declarative memory, but research investigating the effect of sleep on
memory for information that is not explicitly studied for a test is sparse. In two experiments …

Task-irrelevant speech is known to cause disruption of short-term memory, either through
specific interference with encoding processes (eg, seriation, semantic processing) or by …
