Hello again:
This question is from me. I have seen demonstrations of those word lists that
are organized around a central theme, but lack the most obvious word. They
are read to a subject who then tries to recall them, usually giving the theme
word as one of those read aloud, even though it wasn't. I have tried to make
up versions of these lists, but mine are never very good. Does anyone here
have some better versions of this "false memory" task?"
Thanks for your help in this matter.
