Those who «
recalled» more lures were assumed to be more prone to
false memories, and were found to have higher - quality neural connections, called axons, in the superior longitudinal fascicle, known to be associated with gist - based
memory (Journal of Neuroscience, DOI: 10.1523 / jneurosci.5270 - 08.2009).
It's likely these
false memories get reinforced the same way real ones do: During the
recall process, the circuit gets fortified, strengthening the inaccuracies.
Although imagery decreased
false memories during immediate
recall, the simple imagery procedures in this study were not sufficient to lessen
false memories for conceptually related lists during the delayed recognition test.
