False claims about false memory research. Wade, K. A., Sharman, S. J., Garry, M., Memon, A., Mazzoni, G., Merckelbach, H., & Loftus, E. F. Consciousness and Cognition, 16(1):18–28, March, 2007.

Pezdek and Lam [Pezdek, K. & Lam, S. (2007). What research paradigms have cognitive psychologists used to study ‘‘False memory,’’ and what are the implications of these choices? Consciousness and Cognition] claim that the majority of research into false memories has been misguided. Speciﬁcally, they charge that false memory scientists have been (1) misusing the term ‘‘false memory,’’ (2) relying on the wrong methodologies to study false memories, and (3) misapplying false memory research to real world situations. We review each of these claims and highlight the problems with them. We conclude that several types of false memory research have advanced our knowledge of autobiographical and recovered memories, and that future research will continue to make signiﬁcant contributions to how we understand memory and memory errors.
