Situation property and false memory: An investigation into metacognitive monitoring of DRM task
نویسندگان
چکیده
Backward Associative Strength (BAS) is considered as a good predictor of false memory (FM) produced by DeeseRoediger-McDermott (DRM) task. Previous study found that both semantic properties and BAS load on the same factor of the task (Brainerd et al., 2008). It is proposed that DRM lists composed of Situation Properties (SP) can elicit high FM at low BAS (Cann et al., 2011). We assume that SP could influence metacognitive monitoring for DRM task. The present study investigates if SP lists and BAS influence metacognitive monitoring of FM. Both Gamma and C (Cheng, 2010) values are used to measure the metacognitive monitoring of DRM task in Roediger’s (2013) paradigm. The results show that SP reduces metacognitive monitoring of FM.

Some of theories which try to explain the mechanisms underlying false memory phenomenon postulate that false memories are due to existence of semantic relations between studied items which increase memory's vulnerability to this kind of distortion. Thus, the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of shifting attention away from semantic relations among words in associative lists...
متن کاملEffects of Working Memory Capacity on Metacognitive Monitoring: A Study of Group Differences Using a Listening Span Test
Monitoring is an executive function of working memory that serves to update novel information, focusing attention on task-relevant targets, and eliminating task-irrelevant noise. The present research used a verbal working memory task to examine how working memory capacity limits affect monitoring. Participants performed a Japanese listening span test that included maintenance of target words an...
متن کاملFalse memory in a short-term memory task.
The Deese/Roediger-McDermott (DRM; Roediger & McDermott, 1995) paradigm reliably elicits false memories for critical nonpresented words in recognition tasks. The present studies used a Sternberg (1966) task with DRM lists to determine whether false memories occur in short-term memory tasks and to assess the contribution of latency data in the measurement of false memories. Subjects studied thre...
متن کاملAssessing activation of true and false memory traces: A study using the DRM Paradigm
False memories are defined as the remembering of events that never happened or as remembering them quite differently from the way they happened (Roediger & McDermott, 1995). In the literature, one of the most frequently used paradigms to study false memories is the Deese-RoedigerMcDermott paradigm (DRM; Deese, 1959; Roediger & McDermott, 1995). In a typical DRM experiment, participants study a ...
متن کاملTrue and False DRM Memories: Differences Detected with an Implicit Task
Memory is prone to illusions. When people are presented with lists of words associated with a non-presented critical lure, they produce a high level of false recognitions (false memories) for non-presented related stimuli indistinguishable, at the explicit level, from presented words (DRM paradigm). We assessed whether true and false DRM memories can be distinguished at the implicit level by us...
