In a study discussed in the textbook that researched the effects of different types of information on memory, subjects viewed a slide presentation of a traffic accident. the actual slide presentation contained a stop sign, but in a written summary of the presentation, the sign was referred to as a yield sign. what were the results of this study?

The correct answer would be that subjects who were given misleading information after viewing the slides were far less accurate in their memories for the kind of sign present than were subjects who were given no such information.

Hope this helps!
