Preferred term

source monitoring framework  

Definition

  • A theory that the phenomenal qualities of a mental experience are used to attribute a source to a memory (Johnson et al., 1993). For example, a memory will be attributed to a perceived event in the past if it contains more perceptual, temporal, spatial, and affective details, whereas a memory will be attributed to imagination if it contains more frequent references to cognitive operations.
