Discussion
Read Chapter 3 of the text and watch the Connect video "How the Misinformation Effect Influences Memories." In your initial post, address the following:
Reflect on an occasion when your recollection of a particular memory became less accurate because of post-event information. What were the contributing factors?
In what ways has the explosion of technology and media/social media contributed to how the misinformation effect has become more prevalent in today's world?
Suggestibility (the influence of others' expectations on our memory) and misattribution (information attributed to an incorrect source) raise several ethical concerns. What are some that you can think of?
