Benjamin, A. S. (2001) studied false memory and the effects of repetition on age, and time pressure on false memory. Two experiments were performed. In the first experiment researchers predicted that the effect of repetition would differ in outcome between young and elderly participants. Between younger and older participants, younger participants will show a decrease in false memory while it might increase for older participants. This study involved two different age groups, three different word types, and two categories of repetition. 31 participants were included in this study, 16 were young undergraduate students with a mean age of 22.4 years, and 15 elderly participants with a mean age of 74.3 years. Participants then had to study 80 words
