This phenomenon is known as imagination inflation, where repeated imagination or mental visualization of an event can increase an individual's confidence in the event's occurrence, even if it did not actually happen. The DRM procedure refers to a memory phenomenon where individuals falsely remember a non-presented word that is semantically related to a list of presented words. The misinformation effect is the tendency for new, misleading information to distort one's memory of an event. Self-hypnosis involves inducing a hypnotic state in oneself for therapeutic or personal reasons.
