Reconstructive memory
Loftus & Palmer's eyewitness testimony of an automobile destruction What is memory?
Reconstructed & perceived
Experiment 1
How the change of verbs in the leading question distorted participants' memory?
Smashed, collided, bumped, hit, contacted 'About how fast were the cars going when they _____ into each other?'
Any demand characteristics or response bias?
Experiment 2 Smashed, hit & control groups to avoid demand characteristics in Exp1
1 week later, 'Did you see any broken glass?'
Memory consists of information processed during perception & information received later.
