Memory Errors

Describe a disagreement that you've had with someone about an incident that involved memory . Using the research on Memory Construction Errors*, choose 1 way that would explain why YOUR memory of the incident MIGHT be wrong (you are not admitting that your memory is wrong - you are merely speculating on how your memory might be wrong). In discussing your chosen memory construction error, be sure to  describe/explain the construction error; discuss how the construction error reflects the memory incident you have described above AND  describe one study that shows the error in action If you’ve never argued or disagreed with someone about a memory (!), describe a case in the news that has relied on eyewitness memory and apply the forum assignment to this case.
