• How did the researchers define false memory?
• What was/were the researchers' hypothesis (es)ortheir research questions?

(4)Synthesize.
• What do these articles tell you about false memory?
• What would you still like to know about the topic? Imagine that you are going to design a research study on the same (or related topic) and do the following:
o Create a hypothesis or research question that was not tested in the articles you read but is related to the topic.
