“…Enhanced access to knowledge-based schemata also reduces the cognitive effort required to process the relations between associates (Bjorklund & Muir, 1988). Stories also allow other processes to come into play that may increase false memory, such as engagement with the material and higher-level knowledge in the form of schemas (see Dewhurst, Holmes, Swannell, & Barry, 2008). Presenting the DRM items in a story context may, therefore, reveal effects of experimental manipulations in younger children that are not readily observed with the standard list version of the DRM procedure.…”

“…In a classic study by Brewer and Treyens (1981), participants falsely remembered objects consistent with an office schema (e.g., filing cabinet) after waiting in a graduate student’s office, from which those items had been removed. Schema-driven false memories have also been created using pictures (Miller & Gazzaniga, 1998) and stories (e.g., Dewhurst, Holmes, Swannell, & Barry, 2008; Lampinen, Faries, Neuschatz, & Toglia, 2000). Although the types of knowledge that underlie schema-based false memories differ from those that give rise to the DRM illusion, both schema-based and associative memory illusions are driven by the activation of stored knowledge (see Roediger, Watson, McDermott, & Gallo, 2001).…”

Three experiments investigated the relationship between future thinking and false memories. In Experiment 1, participants remembered familiar events (e.g., a holiday) from their past, imagined planning the same events in the future, or took part in a control condition in which they visualized typical events. They then rated a series of schema-related and schema-unrelated nouns for how likely they were to be encountered within those events. In a surprise recognition test, participants in the future condition falsely recognized more schema-related items than participants in the past and control conditions. No reliable effects of rating condition were observed in correct recognition. Experiment 2 found the same pattern when participants imagined unfamiliar events (e.g., taking part in a bank robbery) from past or future perspectives. Participants in Experiment 3 remembered a past or imagined a future holiday and were then instructed to generate items that someone might take on a holiday. Participants in the future condition generated more nonstudied items and fewer studied items relative to participants in the past condition. The findings of Experiments 1 and 2 indicate that simulating future events enhances the activation of related items that gives rise to false memories. The findings of Experiment 3 suggest that these activation processes play an adaptive role in guiding the planning of future events. (PsycINFO Database Record

“…Then we practice techniques to Preview for lectures, where the main goal is to stress the importance of linking new learning to prior knowledge . How well prior material is understood is essential to building understanding of new material (Hay et al, 2008;Dewhurst et al, 2007)). When asked to clearly define terms they claim are 'previously known', students frequently struggle and are then forced to acknowledge they did not know as much as they thought, and here we begin to tackle the "illusion of knowing" so common to weak students .…”
