Özet

Research on memory, a focal point of numerous disciplines, is extensively documented in the literature, particularly concerning

psychological processes and brain-behavior relationships. Beyond merely observing memory's functionality, it is crucial to

scrutinize the phenomenon of memories that are misremembered or recalled as if they never occurred—processes characterized by

errors, distortions, and reconstructions. Memory illusions involve the acceptance of semantically accurate yet structurally altered,

unreal thoughts as genuine. To study these illusions, the Deese-Roediger-McDermott (DRM) paradigm—a widely adopted cognitive

framework that conceptualizes memory as a network of nodes and their interconnections—is utilized. This research aims to explore

memory illusions and false memories through the application of DRM lists, examining the intricate relationship between these

phenomena, source memory, and individuals' thinking styles, as well as their implications for chicken consumption within the

context of memory distortion.
