Source-monitoring error

Source-monitoring error

Definition

Source-monitoring error is the term used by the many fields of neuroscience for the brain's failure to correctly determine whether a specific memory comes from short term or long term memory and which other memories might be associated with it.

This sort of error has been linked to Schizophrenia [http://ajp.psychiatryonline.org/cgi/content/full/154/11/1530] and other milder cases of delusion [http://www.livescience.com/strangenews/070406_past_lives.html] .
