Three experiments investigated the relationship between future thinking and false memories.

Dean, Graham M.; Dewhurst, Stephen A.; Morris, Peter E.; Whittaker, Annalise – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2005
Eight experiments investigated the effects of visual, spatial, auditory, and executive interference on the symbolic comparison of animal size and ferocity, semantic goodness of words, and numbers. Dynamic visual noise (DVN) and the reading of visually presented stimulus items were shown to selectively interfere with response times on the animal…
