在三个实验中，我们研究了分散注意对错误记忆的影响，使用Deese/ Roediger-McDermott（DRM）范式。在实验I和2中，参与者研究了6个DRM列表，其中6个在两个分散注意力的条件下（随机数生成或数字监控）。这两个分散注意力的条件下增加了相关词的错误回忆（实验1），但减少了错误识别（实验2）。这些结果在实验3中得到了证实，在实验3中，次级任务的类型在组内被操纵。我们认为，错误回忆的增加与分散注意力反映了参与者的反应标准的变化，而错误识别的减少是因为次要任务阻止参与者产生联想的话在研究中。
In three experiments, we investigated the effects of divided attention on false memory, using the Deese/ Roediger-McDermott (DRM) paradigm. In Experiments I and 2, participants studied six DRM lists with full attention and six in one of two divided-attention conditions (random number generation or digit monitoring). Both divided-attention conditions increased false recall of related words (Experiment 1) but reduced false recognition (Experiment 2). These results were confirmed in Experiment 3, in which the type of secondary task was manipulated within groups. We argue that the increase in false recall with divided attention reflects a change in participants' response criterion, whereas the decrease in false recognition occurs because the secondary tasks prevent participants from generating associates of the words presented at study.
