So excited for our first review for Memory Lane from @PublishersWkly! “…a persuasive argument that forgetting has its benefits, even as the fascinating case studies show the many downsides of memory’s fallibility. Pop science readers will want to check out this splendid study”
Memory Lane: The Perfectly Imperfect Ways We Remember by @ciaragreene01 and @gillysmurf (on-sale: March 4, 2025) is a “splendid study” with “fascinating case studies.” Read the full @PublishersWkly review: hubs.ly/Q02-xwLb0

Delighted to see this paper published at HKS Misinformation Review with @gillysmurf and a fantastic group of post docs and RAs. This was a huge review examining all misinfo studies published since 2016 misinforeview.hks.harvard.ed…

- The topics studied by misinformation researchers have shifted over time, with health issues (especially COVID!) overtaking political misinformation as the most popular topic investigated

We suggest researchers should be cautious in inferring behav consequences from misinfo exposure if behaviours are not measured. Policymakers should reflect on outcomes they hope to influence (e.g. vaccination rates) and consider whether evidence supports specific interventions.

Research has shown that even the memories that we see as being fundamental are prone to bias, and even outright fabrication. Discussing the consequences of false memories at QED will be @chriscfrench, @ciaragreene01, Kevin Felstead, and @jourdemayne qedcon.org/news/2023/announc…

This paper was so much fun! We often talk about people having “a good memory”, but we found here that different measures of autobiographical memory correlate weakly, suggesting different underlying processes. Performing well on one task doesn’t meant you’ll do well on another!
Our new paper explores correlations between autobiographical memory tasks related to the same public event over an 18-month period. Available open access here: doi.org/10.1002/acp.4103 @ciaragreene01 @eloftus1 @bofstein
