  • Title: The ontogeny and durability of true and false memories: a fuzzy trace account.
    Author: Ceci SJ, Bruck M.
    Journal: J Exp Child Psychol; 1998 Nov; 71(2):165-9. PubMed ID: 9843621.
    Abstract:
    Fuzzy-trace theory has been developed by Brainerd and Reyna (1998, this issue) to explain a variety of findings. Here we explore the way that fuzzy-trace theory handles three phenomena concerning the creation and maintenance of false memories. We show that fuzzy-trace theory can account for seemingly paradoxical findings, thus providing theoretical clarity that has heretofore been lacking in the developmental literature.
