我们报告了一个新的范式来研究由社会影响植入的错误记忆，我们称之为记忆的社会传染。一个主题和邦联一起看到六个常见的家庭场景（例如，一个厨房）包含许多物体，持续15或60秒。在合作回忆测试中，2名受试者每人回忆起6个来自场景的项目，但同谋者偶尔会犯错误，报告不是来自场景的项目。一些入侵与场景模式高度一致（例如，烤面包机）而其它的则不那么（例如，烤箱手套）。在短暂的延迟之后，个体受试者试图从六个场景中回忆尽可能多的项目。回忆错误的项目建议的同盟者是大于在控制条件下（没有建议）。此外，当场景呈现的时间较短（15秒）时，以及当侵入的项目更符合图式时（例如，烤面包机）。与其他形式的社会影响一样，错误记忆具有传染性;一个人的记忆可以被另一个人的错误所感染。
We report a new paradigm for studying false memories implanted by social influence, a process we call the social contagion of memory. A subject and confederate together saw six common household scenes (e.g., a kitchen) containing many objects, for either 15 or 60 sec. During a collaborative recall test, the 2 subjects each recalled six items from the scenes, but the confederate occasionally made mistakes by reporting items not from the scene. Some intrusions were highly consistent with the scene schema (e.g., a toaster) while others were less so (e.g., oven mitts). After a brief delay, the individual subject tried to recall as many items as possible from the six scenes. Recall of the erroneous items suggested by the confederate was greater than in a control condition (with no suggestion). Further, this social contagion effect was greater when the scenes were presented for less time (15 sec) and when the intruded item was more schema consistent (e.g., the toaster). As with other forms of social influence, false memories are contagious; one person's memory can be infected by another person's errors.
