Abstract

This study examines how visual perspective (first-person vs. third-person) during encoding and retrieval, and emotional valence (positive, neutral, negative) influence false recognition. Using immersive VR scenarios, two experiments will test false recognition rates. Results will provide insights into memory distortions, with implications for legal and clinical settings.
