人们对同一事件的记忆不同，当他们讨论事件时，他们交换新的和误导性的信息。讨论可以改变记忆，特别是当新信息的来源非常可靠时。但我们不知道可信度的影响是基于绝对判断--独立于我们自己的可信度来判断一个来源的可信度--还是基于相对判断--仅根据我们自己的可信度来判断一个来源的可信度。我们通过操纵受试者的预期来解决这个问题，让他们相信当他们一起看电影时，他们的“视觉敏锐度”与他们的伴侣相同，更高或更低。为了给两人创造足够的机会，让他们互相提到误导性的细节，每个成员都在不知不觉中看到了电影的不同版本。然后，两人讨论了一些关键的差异，但没有讨论其他差异。后来，每个人都参加了一个独立的识别测试。受试者对错误信息的敏感性取决于他们自己相对于伴侣的可信度，这支持了对错误信息的敏感性取决于可信度的相对差异的观点。(C)2010 Elsevier B.

People remember different details about the same events, and when they discuss events they exchange new and misleading - information. Discussion can change memory, especially when the source of new information is highly credible. But we do not know whether the effects of credibility are based on absolute judgments - judging a source's credibility independently from our own credibility - or relative judgments - judging a source's credibility only in relation to our own credibility. We addressed this question by manipulating subjects' expectations, leading them to believe that they either had the same, higher or lower "visual acuity" than their partner while they watched a movie together. To create ample opportunities for the pairs to mention misleading details to one another, each member unknowingly saw a different version of the movie. The pairs then discussed some of the critical differences, but not others. Later, everyone took an independent recognition test. Subjects' susceptibility to misinformation depended on their own credibility relative to their partner's, supporting the idea that susceptibility to misinformation depends on relative differences in credibility.
