A post-event misinformation experiment with a picture of a balloon ride, pseudo event attributed to parental acknowledgement, memory “enhancement” techniques like imagery and trying to find details in one’s mind for the pseudo event.

sentence verification task reaction time. 1 link requires less reaction time than 2 links.
