使用Deese-Roediger-McDermott(DRM)程序的标准版本和一个替代版本对5、8和11岁儿童的错误识别进行了调查，在该版本中，DRM刺激被嵌入到旨在强调其整体主题的故事中。与8岁和11岁儿童相比，当DRM刺激以列表形式呈现时，5岁儿童错误地识别出较少的关键诱饵，而当刺激以故事形式呈现时，5岁儿童错误地识别出更多的关键诱饵。8岁和11岁儿童的错误识别水平不受研究形式的影响。我们认为，故事背景增强了5岁儿童基于DRM刺激主题进行推理的能力。5岁的孩子表现出比年龄较大的孩子更高的错误识别水平，这是因为他们无法拒绝与故事一致的引诱词语。
False recognition in children aged 5, 8, and 11 years was investigated using the standard version of the Deese-Roediger-McDermott (DRM) procedure and an alternative version in which the DRM stimuli were embedded in stories designed to emphasize their overall theme. Relative to the 8- and 11-year-olds, the 5-year-olds falsely recognized fewer critical lures when the DRM stimuli were presented in lists, but falsely recognized more critical lures when the stimuli were presented in stories. Levels of false recognition in the 8- and 11-year-olds were not affected by study format. We argue that the story context enhanced the ability of the 5-year-olds to make inferences based on the theme of the DRM stimuli. The 5-year-olds then showed higher levels of false recognition than the older children owing to their inability to reject lure words consistent with the stories.
