DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The present application is a novel extension of the investigators' research on generative learning and visual attention to the problem of false memory in individuals with mental retardation. Such individuals have been shown to have lower free recall rates relative to CA-matched peers, and to be more susceptible to suggestibility and confabulation when questioned about past events. Thus, it is critical not only to assess systematically the variables underlying false memories in individuals with mental retardation, but also to develop efficacious cognitive interventions designed to facilitate recognition and recall without increasing false memories. The investigators propose four experiments that involve both recognition and recall methodologies. These studies are designed to delineate specific patterns of false memories utilizing pictorial encoding contexts, and to utilize generative learning procedures to enhance recognition and recall in individuals with and without mental retardation. The studies are expected to contribute both to basic and applied issues in the areas of false memory, generative learning, and memory processes in individuals with mental retardation.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请是研究者对智力迟钝个体的错误记忆问题的生成学习和视觉注意的研究的新扩展。 这些人已经被证明相对于CA匹配的同龄人具有较低的自由回忆率，并且在被问及过去的事件时更容易被混淆和虚构。 因此，不仅要系统地评估精神发育迟滞个体错误记忆的潜在变量，而且要制定有效的认知干预措施，以促进识别和回忆，而不增加错误记忆。 研究人员提出了四个涉及识别和回忆方法的实验。 这些研究的目的是描绘特定模式的错误记忆利用图片编码的情况下，并利用生成学习程序，以提高识别和回忆的个人和没有精神发育迟滞。 这些研究有望有助于在错误记忆，生成学习和记忆过程中的精神发育迟滞的个人领域的基本和应用问题。
