错误记忆是一种建立良好的情景记忆现象：语义相关的联想被自信地和错误地记住为研究项目。我们报告四个实验产生类似的效果，在工作记忆范式。四个语义相关的词被保留在一个短暂的时间间隔。无论间隔是否充满了数学验证任务，语义相关的诱饵被错误地识别为记忆集的成员，并且比不相关的负探针需要更长的时间来拒绝。在短期回忆任务中，语义入侵超过了其他错误（例如，音素的）。我们的研究结果表明，错误的记忆效果的子跨度列表时，只有4秒之间的研究和测试。这种快速的语义错误可能是由于联想处理，可能与熟悉为基础的积极干预工作记忆，并与最近的模型，整合短期和长期的记忆过程是一致的。
False memories are well-established, episodic memory phenomena: Semantically related associates are confidently and erroneously remembered as studied items. We report four experiments yielding similar effects in a working memory paradigm. Four semantically related words were retained over a brief interval. Whether or not the interval was filled with a math verification task, semantically related lures were mistakenly recognized as members of the memory set and took longer to reject than did unrelated negative probes. In a short-term recall task, semantic intrusions exceeded other errors (e.g., phonemic). Our results demonstrate false memory effects for a subspan list when a mere 4 sec was given between study and test. Such rapid semantic errors presumably result from associative processing, may be related to familiarity-based proactive interference in working memory, and are consistent with recent models that integrate short- and long-term memory processes.
