abstract="In two experiments we investigated individual differences related to memory errors. In Experiment 1, we conducted an exploratory study of several factors possibly related to the tendency to change source monitoring decisions for an autobiographical memory. We found that only the Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES) was related to this autobiographical memory error. In Experiment 2, we used both the autobiographical memory task and a word list task as measures of memory. Aspects of the DES were related to errors in both measures and imagery vividness was related to errors in the word list study. The tendency to change a source judgement for an autobiographical memory was not related to the number of errors in a word list task. Performance on word lists may not be a good predictor of an individual's performance in everyday memory tasks because the two may be based on different underlying processes.
