Researchers asked university students to imagine certain childhood events, including a false event such as breaking a window with their hand. they discovered that it is surprisingly easy to lead people to construct false memories. events from the distant past are less vulnerable to memory distortion than more recent events. people can easily distinguish between their own true and false memories. hypnotic suggestion is an effective technique for accurate memory retrieval.
