Abstract

The present study aims to explore the influence of field cognitive style on the false memory of Chinese characters. Based on the related literature, this paper used Cognitive Style Figure Test (CSFT) to investigate the field cognitive style of college student and test the differences of field cognitive style in demographic variables. Using the DRM paradigm, with Chinese characters lists as experimental material. This study was to inspect whether Chinese semantic/tonetic association has any effect on false memory, and whether there is any interaction between field cognitive style and Chinese character component on it. The results showed that: (a) there were significant differences between male and female in the recognition rate of symbol types, with the recognition rate of tonetic symbol type characters being generally higher than that of semantic symbol type; (b) Chinese semantic/tonetic associations had an effect on false memory and gender has a significant difference in the recognition of critical-lures; (c) field cognitive style had no statistically significant difference in recognition rate on character component type and characters type (old characters, filler characters, and critical-lures); (d) individuals with different field cognitive styles differed significantly in the rate of misrecognition of critical-lures for semantic symbols.
