In cognitive neuroscience research on illusory memories:
 
  a) real memories show a greater response in one hemisphere of the brain.
   b) illusory memories show a greater response in one hemisphere of the brain.
   c) real memories show an equal pattern of ERP responses for each hemisphere of the brain.
   d) indicate that our brain cannot tell the difference between real and illusory memories.

Question 2

In the study phase of a laboratory study of false memory, participants were presented with themed lists to the left hemisphere.
 
  During the retrieval phase participants were presented with a series of words (words from the
   lists seen during the encoding phase, the theme words around which the previous list had been created, and
   new words that had not been presented in the study phase). They were to identify which of the words were on the lists presented in the study phase. ERP responses were recorded. What would you predict should happen?
   a) ERP responses should be greater in the left hemisphere than the right hemisphere if the word had been
   presented during the study phase.
   b) ERP responses should be greater in the right hemisphere than the left hemisphere if the word had been
   presented during the study phase.
   c) ERP responses to the theme words should be the same in both the left and right hemisphere.
   d) ERP responses to the words actually presented should be the same in both the left and right hemisphere.
