学前儿童的现实性监测对易受暗示性的预测

Preschoolers' Reality Monitoring Predicts Suggestibility

对学前儿童的现实性监测与易受暗示性发展之间的关系进行了考察。结果表明,在控制了年龄、对事件的初始编码和提取能力后,现实性监测能力可以显著地预测记忆的易受暗示性。那些现实性监测能力较低的儿童更容易接受误信息,相反,那些现实性监测能力较强的儿童,更能抵制误信息的干扰。

The relation between preschoolers＇ reality monitoring and developmental suggestibility was examined. The results suggested that reality monitoring significantly predicted suggestibility in memory, with age, verbal ability, and initial encoding and retrieval of the event controlled. Those with low reality monitoring were prone to accept misinformation. In contrast, those who had better performance in the reality monitoring task resisted misinformation more easily.
