错误记忆有时包含一些关于从未发生过的事件的具体细节,如位置或颜色。基于来源监控框架,我们研究了错误记忆获取细节的一个过程:相似感知事件记忆中特征信息的再激活和错误归因。在实验1A和1B中,当想象中的物体被错误地记住时,参与者经常报告说,这些物体出现在视觉上或概念上相似的物体实际出现的位置。实验2表明,所看到的物体的颜色和形状特征被错误归因于想象的物体的错误记忆。实验3表明,感知到的细节被错误归因于对没有明确想象的物体的错误记忆。与那些可能没有引入感知特征的错误记忆相比,引入感知特征的错误记忆在主观上更像是对感知事件的记忆。因此,知觉在促成错误记忆方面可能比想象更有害。
False memories sometimes contain specific details, such as location or colour, about events that never occurred. Based on the source-monitoring framework, we investigated one process by which false memories acquire details: the reactivation and misattribution of feature information from memories of similar perceived events. In Experiments 1A and 1B, when imagined objects were falsely remembered as seen, participants often reported that the objects had appeared in locations where visually or conceptually similar objects, respectively, had actually appeared. Experiment 2 indicated that colour and shape features of seen objects were misattributed to false memories of imagined objects. Experiment 3 showed that perceived details were misattributed to false memories of objects that had not been explicitly imagined. False memories that imported perceived features, compared to those that presumably did not, were subjectively more like memories for perceived events. Thus, perception may be even more pernicious than imagination in contributing to false memories.
