Abstract
Distinct events can be linked in two ways: (1)Inference- flexibly recombining elements of two episodes during retrieval and (2)Insight- creating a high-level continuous narrative containing the relevant elements of each episode. Across two experiments we evaluated the role of narrative insight and associative inference on subsequent true and false memory.
