False memories typically share semantic or surface features with actual experiences,
sometimes both. However, it is unclear whether false memories that are rooted in semantic …

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 …

In over 100 years of scientific research on human memory, and nearly 50 years after the so-
called cognitive revolution, we have nothing that really constitutes a widely accepted and …

False memories are well-established long-term memory (LTM) phenomena. Recent reports
of false recognition at short term suggest that working memory (WM) could also give rise to …

Decades of research using the Deese–Roediger–McDermott (DRM) paradigm have
demonstrated that episodic memory is vulnerable to semantic distortion, and neuroimaging …

Distortions of long-term memory (LTM) in the converging associates task are thought to arise
from semantic associative processes and monitoring failures due to degraded verbatim …

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 …

Memory researchers traditionally distinguish between two types of transient memory:
Sensory memory and short‐term (or working) memory. Sensory memories are faithful …

In recent years, there has been an explosion of research on false memories: The subjective
experience of remembering something if that something did apparently not happen in reality …

This study aimed to investigate the role of emotion and working memory capacity (WMC) on
false memory by measuring memory sensitivity independently of response bias. We used …
