The memory conformity effect occurs when people witness a given incident (e.g. a crime) then talk to each other about it, and the statement of one person affects the memory account of the other person with respect to this incident. The aim of this manuscript is to improve the quality of witness testimony by verifying the effectiveness of three methods in reducing the memory conformity effect: 1) an extended warning against misinformation; 2) a method based on information about memory functioning and its fallibility; and 3) a method consisting in motivating participants to resist influence and demonstrating their individual vulnerability to it. In the presented experiment, the innovative MORI technique will be used to study the memory conformity effect. This technique allows a pair of participants to sit beside each other, look at the same screen, and see a different version of the same criminal event. In the next stages, the subjects are asked to answer a series of questions about different details, thereby introducing mutual misinformation; then the participants perform an individual memory test. In the experimental conditions, this test will be preceded by one of the three tested methods in each group, with the aim of determining their effective in reducing memory conformity. |
