Gaps in memory, which are common, may be filled in by logic, guessing, or new information (Schacter, 2012). The result is often the storage of new long-term memories as older memories might be revised or even lost (Baddeley, Eysenck, & Anderson, 2009). What we remember depends on what we pay attention to, what we regard as meaningful or important, how we elaborate our memory, and what we feel strongly about. After reading Modules 32-36, consider the concept of false memories.

1. Define false memories.
2. Discuss the research on false memories.
3. After watching the Elizabeth Loftis TedTalks video (https://youtu.be/PB2OegI6wvI), how has your opinion of memory changed?
