  • Title: Mood-congruent true and false memory: effects of depression.
    Author: Howe ML, Malone C.
    Journal: Memory; 2011 Feb; 19(2):192-201. PubMed ID: 21294037.
    Abstract:
    The Deese/Roediger-McDermott paradigm was used to investigate the effect of depression on true and false recognition. In this experiment true and false recognition was examined across positive, neutral, negative, and depression-relevant lists for individuals with and without a diagnosis of major depressive disorder. Results showed that participants with major depressive disorder falsely recognised significantly more depression-relevant words than non-depressed controls. These findings also parallel recent research using recall instead of recognition and show that there are clear mood congruence effects for depression on false memory performance.
