- Typicality and misinformation: Two sources of distortion Malen Migueles Karlos Luna Psicología This study examined the effect of two sources of memory error: exposure topost-event information and extracting typical contents from schemata.Participants were shown a video of a bank robbery and presented with highandlow-typicality misinformation extracted from two normative studies.The misleading suggestions consisted of either changes in the original videoinformation or additions of completely new contents. In the subsequentrecognition task the post-event misinformation produced memoryimpairment. The participants used the underlying schema of the event toextract high-typicality information which had become integrated withepisodic information, thus giving rise to more hits and false alarms for theseitems. However, the effect of exposure to misinformation was greater onlow-typicality items. There were no differences between changed or addedinformation, but there were more false alarms when a low-typicality itemwas changed to a high-typicality item 2008 artículo científico 0211-2159 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=16929204 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=169 Psicológica application/pdf Universitat de València Psicológica (España) Num.2 Vol.29
