False memories and the source monitoring framework - Reply to Reyna and Lloyd (1997)

Reyna and Lloyd [Learn Individ Differ 9 (1997) 95.] reviewed a wide range o f studies on false-memory effects, and argued that all of the findings supp ort fuzzy trace theory (FTT) and that many of them challenge the source mon itoring framework (SMF). The present paper provides a brief overview of the SMF and corrects a number of misconceptions in Reyna and Lloyd's review, w ith the aim of providing a more complete understanding of how the SMF can b e used to understand false-memory phenomena.
