Your answer
In what way does Steve want us to be careful about psychological research on human memory?
*
1 point
Don't over-generalize based on the results of research experiments.
Don't tell people with false memories they're wrong because they might go into shock.
What is one of the processes happening in our brains when we are remembering something?
*
1 point
Our brains will only recall actual facts or experiences from our past, and nothing more.
Our brains make inferences or attributions about the origins or sources of its own contents.
What illusion does our brain create with respect to our perception?
*
1 point
Our brain constantly reminds us that we only have a narrow perception and stops us from imagining things.
While we only focus on specific things, our brain works to create an illusion that we have much wider, more detailed and comprehensive perception than we actually do.
What does the research tell us about false memories?
*
1 point
False memories don't exist; we can only remember what we experienced.
It's possible to plant memories that never really happened or to convince a person something they remembered (because they experienced it) actually didn't happen.
What does research using videos manipulated to show people committing a crime or bad deeds tell us?
*
1 point
People can be led to confess to crimes or bad deeds they didn't actually commit.
Because of our innate ability to tell between right and wrong, it's impossible to make a person give false confession.
What does the research tell us about the effects of photos on people asked to judge the "truthiness" of statements?
*
1 point
Photos have no impact on assessments of "truthiness" for people.
People lean in the direction of “truthiness” if they are shown a photo along with a statement, even if that photo doesn’t explain the accuracy of the statement.
