reinforced self-affirmation procedure  

Définition

  • A method of increasing subjects’ confidence in their memories, which is intended to reduce their susceptibility to suggestions and thus reduce the effect of various forms of memory distortion. The procedure is based on two techniques: self-affirmation (the subject is asked to write down his or her highest life achievements) and positive feedback in a memory task.

Note d'application

  • Studies showed that the reinforced self-affirmation procedure is efficient to reduce the misinformation effect (e.g., Szpitalak, 2022 ; Szpitalak & Polczyk, 2013 ; Szpitalak & Polczyk, 2019 ; Szpitalak & Polczyk, 2021) and interrogative suggestibility (Szpitalak & Polczyk, 2016), but not the memory conformity effect (Kękuś et al., 2023).
