Human memory is not a perfect recording device, but rather a dynamic system that reconstructs past events. And this reconstructive nature is what makes false memories surprisingly common. These memory errors are particularly frequent in the daily lives of older adults and have a strong impact on their autonomy and well-being. Previous research has shown that false memories can be corrected in younger adults using various strategies, but is it possible to correct them also during aging?
