Memmott, Magdalen Grace | DRM & driving: Creation of false memories under cognitive workload | Not only are humans unable to recall things that actually occur, they may also recall information that did not occur. Such findings contribute to the pervasive hypothesis that people are not more productive by combining tasks, instead such productivity is an illusion. It was hypothesized that when m... | False memory syndrome | 2015-04 |
