Mirandola, C.; Paparella, G.; Re, A. M.; Ghetti, S.; Cornoldi, C. – Learning and Individual Differences, 2012
Enhanced semantic processing is associated with increased false recognition of items consistent with studied material, suggesting that children with poor semantic skills could produce fewer false memories. We examined whether memory errors differed in children with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and controls. Children viewed 18…

According to the cognitive-energetic model, this may reflect difficulty in remaining in an optimal motor activation state…
