Source memory for actions
This thesis investigates source memory for performed and observed actions in recall and recognition tasks. The motor simulation account predicts that motor activation during action observation results in source misattributions of observed actions as self-performed. Alternatively, source judgements …

Source Memory in Social Contexts
Source memory is memory for where, when, how, and from whom information was received. Current source memory literature focuses mainly on memory for incidental information: i.e., where, when, how) rather than source identity: i.e., who). This dissertation addressed the role of source memory in …

Investigations of the neural basis of source memory strength
… of the original experience. You may have a memory of the individual items you have encountered. We may also have memories of where those items came from, the source of those memories. Source memory includes elements regarding the perceptual or conceptual context of an item, such as the …

The effect of feedback at test on source memory performance
… contained misleading information. On a final source memory test, participants that were provided with feedback as to the accuracy of their attributions during the first part of the test, significantly reduced the number of source misattributions made on the second part of the test. Thus, …

Behavioural and Electrophysiological Correlates of Source Memory in Normal Ageing
Source memory recall involves remembering the context in which an event took place. Studies have shown that a decline in source memory is evident in older adults who have not shown deficits in other areas of memory or cognition. Using the interfering effect of intervening stimuli it is possible to …

Event-related potential correlates of item and source memory strength
… potential (ERP) studies of recognition memory have shown dissociations between item recognition and source memory, wherein item recognition is associated with the mid-frontal FN400 component, which varies continuously with item memory strength, while source memory is associated with the …

An Electrophysiological Investigation of Source Memory Development in Early Childhood
The present study examined source memory development in a sample of 4 and 6 year children. Patterns of brain electrical (EEG) activity were examined in order to provide a neural basis for the role of prefrontal cortex functioning during source monitoring. Children were taught a series of novel …

Source Memory Failures: Comparing Source Misattribution to Sources of False Memories
… when an event properly binds with its context. Source misattribution demonstrates incorrect binding of a memory with its contextual information. By contrast, false memories are memories of events that did not occur. Although theoretically they should not be bound with contextual information, …

The effects of rhythmic presentation of stimuli on item and source memory
… has been done on whether this benefit extends to source memory (i.e., memory of contextual details). In this study, thirty-one participants (mean age = 27.39 years; SD = 4.92), were presented with a stream of images of everyday objects with either a cyan (blue) or magenta (pink) border during a …

Electrophysiological and Behavioural Markers of Associative Source Memory Decline in Normal Ageing
Memory is the ability to encode and subsequently recall information (Brickman & Stern, 2009) and source memory refers to the ability to recall the source of the information, including all contextual aspects related to an event (Glisky & Kong, 2008; M. Johnson, Hashtroudi, & Lindsay, 1993). The …

Assessing the Relationship Between Item Recognition and Source Memory Using Multivariate Signal Detection Theory
… model that is able to simultaneously account for source memory and recognition memory performance. The model is grounded in the source monitoring framework, which suggests that the strength of a test probe depends upon what aspects of a memory representation are queried. In four experiments, the …

How cue-dependent is memory?: Internal reinstatement and cueing effects in recognition and source memory
… of external context cues on recognition and source memory. Participants studied words paired with pictures of male and female faces. Following the study phase, participants completed either a source test in which they decided whether each test word was studied with a male or female face …

Observation inflation and self-action inflation. Investigation of source memory errors as a result of action observation and action performance
This thesis investigates two source memory errors: observation inflation, where observed actions are misremembered as being performed; and self-action inflation in which self-performed actions are misremembered as having been performed by somebody else. It has been proposed that these inflations …

Episodic Memory Development in Childhood: Contributions from Brain Electrical Activity and Executive Functions
Episodic memory is a critical component of human cognition. Episodic memory involves recollection of the contextual details surrounding an event, the capacity for mental time travel of past and future events, and is characterized by the subjective awareness that an event has been personally …

The Influence of Neural Reward Processing on Memory in Depression
… impaired reward sensitivity and a deficit in memory for rewarding stimuli. Some researchers propose that this memory deficit may result from reduced neural reward sensitivity, which impairs the encoding of reward-related memories, but few studies have directly probed this connection. Such …

Determination of High Mass, Low Intensity and Transient Mass Spectra by Computer

Do age and media type influence the effects of pretrial publicity on verdicts?
… to render a guilty verdict and scored lower on a source memory test compared to older adults. Finally, format (text vs video) did not significantly moderate these effects.

The Impact of Emotion on Associative Memory
The effect of emotion on associative memory remains unclear. Inconsistent findings in the literature are leading to theories with opposite predictions. Obtaining a clearer view of the impact of emotion on associative memory remains of crucial importance, particularly as it could shed light on the …

Investigating the Effect of Attentional Control on Source Monitoring and DRM Memory Performance
… to explain the mechanisms underlying false memory formation in the DRM paradigm. Recent research has explored novel list types, such as mediated lists, to isolate spreading activation, and showed support for associative activation over gist-based processing. Studies examining source …

Influence of negative affect on false memory production
… concern for situations in which the accuracy of memory is relied upon or called into question. Within the legal system eyewitness testimonies may often be the only available evidence in determining who committed a crime. In addition, in many clinical and counselling therapies memory is a central …
