Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Reality monitoring involves distinguishing between real and imagined events. Paying attention to the amount of perceptual detail in one's memories can improve this ability by helping to determine if a memory seems true to life or is based on imagination. Repressing similar memories or adding misleading information can make reality monitoring more difficult. Increasing imagination may also impair reality monitoring.
