“…With respect to the NEO Personality Inventory, extraversion has been shown to correlate with false memory susceptibility. Specifically, extraverts have been shown to falsely remember more critical lures than both introverts and ambiverts (Sanford & Fisk, 2009). This finding is consistent with evidence that suggests extraversion is correlated with heightened arousal, which in turn increases spreading activation and thus leads to greater effects of semantic priming (see Matthews & Harley, 1993).…”

Decades of research show that people are susceptible to developing false memories. But if they do so in one task, are they likely to do so in a different one? The answer: "No". In the current research, a large number of participants took part in three well-established false memory paradigms (a misinformation task, the Deese-Roediger-McDermott [DRM] list learning paradigm, and an imagination inflation exercise) as well as completed several individual difference measures. Results indicate that many correlations between false memory variables in all three inter-paradigm comparisons are null, though some small, positive, significant correlations emerged. Moreover, very few individual difference variables significantly correlated with false memories, and any significant correlations were rather small. It seems likely, therefore, that there is no false memory "trait". In other words, no one type of person seems especially prone, or especially resilient, to the ubiquity of memory distortion.

“…In conclusion, the present findings corroborate results from previous studies that demonstrate individual differences in the ability to discriminate between true and false memories (e.g., Dewhurst et al, 2011;McGuire, London, & Wright, 2015;Sanford & Fisk, 2009;Stoeber, 2011). Such a line of research is especially important because trials are often decided based on eyewitness testimonies.…”

“…Several studies have revealed individual characteristics associated with false memories that emerge with the DRM paradigm. For example, higher levels of false memories have been shown to be associated with extraversion (e.g., Sanford & Fisk, 2009), creativity (e.g., Dewhurst, Thorley, Hammond, & Ormerod, 2011), and working memory capacity (e.g., Bixter & Daniel, 2013).…”

“…Furthermore, we tested the hypothesis that the confidence intervals of the recognition task could be related to MSE as a meta-memory task. As regards to BFQ, coherently with previous researches (e.g., Paddock, Terranova, Kwok, & Halpern, 2000;Sanford & Fisk, 2009) we aspect that extroverts produce a significantly greater number of false memories than introverts. In this study, we also assessed the role of WM in predicting performance of a DRM task.…”

“…Presently, not many researches are conducted on the relationship between false memories and individual differences; most of them have focused on the manipulation of the DRM paradigm (Watson, Bunting, Poole, & Conway, 2005). In respect to this, (Sanford & Fisk, 2009) these studies showed a significant relationship between the associative networks of semantic and episodic memory and extroversion/introversion dimensions of personality as measured by the Big Five Questionnaire (BFQ) In the first study we retested the relationship between extraversion and false memories. Furthermore, because no studies investigated the relationship between MSE and Big Five of personality we are interesting in investigate it.…”

The aim of this paper is to investigate the relationship between self-efficacy and false memories using the Deese/ Roediger-McDermott (DRM) paradigm, whereby people falsely remember words not presented in lists. In two studies participants were presented with DRM lists and asked to recall and recognize presented items. In the first study, we found a significant relationship between memory self-efficacy (MSE) and susceptibility to associative memory illusions, both in recall and recognition. They also received the Memory Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (MSEQ), the Big Five Questionnaire (BFQ) and the backward digit span (BDS) test. In the second study, MSE was manipulated in order to assess whether changes influenced the sensitivity parameter in DRM tasks. Results showed that the manipulation was effective in decreasing self-efficacy, which in turn affected the probability of reporting critical lures as well as sensitivity. Possible explanations for the effect are discussed.
