记忆的易错性已成为一个具有相当重要的实践和理论意义的问题。在这里，我们研究了实验诱导的压力对人类参与者准确识别列表中单词的能力的影响。我们发现，压力选择性地破坏了参与者区分单词的能力，这些单词是为了研究而提出的，而这些单词是语义相关的，但不是为了研究而提出的。这一发现表明，压力可能通过其对海马体和前额皮质的影响，可以增强错误记忆。
The fallibility of memory has become an issue of considerable practical and theoretical importance. Here we studied the impact of experimentally induced stress on the ability of human participants to accurately recognise words presented on a list. We found that stress selectively disrupted participants' ability to distinguish words that were presented for study from critical lure words that were semantically related, but not presented for study. This finding indicates that stress, possibly through its impact on the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex, can potentiate false memories.
