Opposite developmental trends for false recognition of basic and superordinate names.

چکیده
This study investigated the development of false memories for basic and superordinate names using the DRM procedure. Two experiments were conducted with younger (3-5 years old) and older (10-12 years old) children. In the first experiment the DRM procedure was used with categorised lists and in the second experiment both types of lists--categorised and associative--were applied. False recognition for basic and superordinate names showed opposite developmental trends, regardless of list type. False recognition increased for critical-basic items and decreased for critical-superordinate items with age. These opposing results are mainly explained by age differences in conceptual knowledge and editing processes.

Developmental trends in different types of spontaneous false memories: implications for the legal field.
In an emerging area of memory research, it is becoming apparent that one particular type of false memory, called spontaneous false memory, follows a developmental trajectory that is the opposite of what is commonly assumed in false memory research - that is, spontaneous false memories are more likely to occur in adults than in children. The present study focused on developmental trends of diffe...
متن کاملBanana or fruit? Detection and recognition across categorical levels in RSVP.
Pictured objects and scenes can be understood in a brief glimpse, but there is a debate about whether they are first encoded at the basic level (e.g., banana), as proposed by Rosch et al. (1976, Cognitive Psychology) , or at a superordinate level (e.g., fruit). The level at which we first categorize an object matters in everyday situations because it determines whether we approach, avoid, or ig...
متن کاملUnderstanding What We See: How We Derive Meaning From Vision
Recognising objects goes beyond vision, and requires models that incorporate different aspects of meaning. Most models focus on superordinate categories (e.g., animals, tools) which do not capture the richness of conceptual knowledge. We argue that object recognition must be seen as a dynamic process of transformation from low-level visual input through categorical organisation to specific conc...
متن کاملThe Effects of Familiarity and Typicality on Naming Objects and Faces
It is found that when we name an object or a face, we often use basic level name (e.g., dog) rather than a name at superordinate level (e.g., animal) or subordinate level (e.g., Labrador). In addition, although abundant evidence generally suggested that both familiarity and typicality influence object recognition, how each of the two factors involves categorization in terms of naming is not ful...
متن کاملAutobiographical Brand Images Give a Higher Chance to False Memory as Compared to Neutral Images
Consumers’ prior experiences shape an episodic memory which largely influences their decision-making process. This episodic memory is mainly linked to cognitive and emotional perception and we know that a brand image influences our cognitive and emotional perception. Nevertheless, it has not been well described how autobiographical memories of brand images differ from those of other types of im...
