Episode notes
False Memory Experiment Example
- The speaker recounts an experiment where about 25% of participants were convinced they had been lost in a mall as children, which was false.
- This shows how false memories can be implanted and even have supporting parental 'memories.'
Nature of False Memories
- False memories can be implanted but may not be true memories, just constructed scenes in the mind.
- The sense of memory blurs when people fill in details based on suggestions rather than actual events.
