Forgetting, fabricating, and telescoping: the instability of the medical history.

Effects of divided attention and word concreteness on correct recall and false memory reports.

Lists of thematically related words were presented to participants with or without a concurrent task. In Experiments 1 and 2, respectively, English or Spanish word lists were either low or high in concreteness (concrete vs abstract words) and were ...

Comparability of total score performance on the Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure and a modified Taylor Complex Figure.

One of the most commonly used neuropsychological measures of visuo-spatial abilities is the Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure (ROCF) Test. Previous research has reliably shown that its companion figure, the Taylor Complex Figure, is not a comparable measure ...

Remembering remembering.

We developed a laboratory analogue of the "forgot-it-all-along" effect that J. W. Schooler, M. Bendiksen, and Z. Ambadar (1997) proposed for cases of "recovered memories" in which individuals had forgotten episodes of talking about the abuse when they ...

The effect of number of kanji radical companions in character activation with a multi-radical-display task.

The majority of Japanese complex kanji consist of two subword units (radicals), and each radical is differentiated according to its combinability. Radical-type frequency is defined as the number of radical companions (NC) functioning as the number of ...

Effects of social support on childrens eyewitness reports: a test of the underlying mechanism.

Research on childrens eyewitness testimony demonstrates that interviewer-provided social support given during a mock forensic interview helps children resist an interviewers misleading suggestions about past events. We proposed and tested 1 potential ...

Serum cholesterol levels in children are associated with dietary fat and fatty acid intake.

BACKGROUND: Recent studies in adults suggest that individual dietary fatty acids differ markedly in their effects on serum lipids and lipoprotein levels. However, these associations have rarely been studied in children. OBJECTIVE: To assess, using ...
