Answer:

Constructive Memory

Step-by-step explanation:

Constructive Memory is an apparent memory of an event that didn't not happen in reality, however it is unconsciously constructed to fill in the gap. When the participants heard these words like night,snore,tired,bed,pillow,yawn,dark,toss,turn,blanket,subjects wrote the word sleep repeatedly to fill in the gaps for the words they didn't remember and all the words initially described are related to sleep.
