An unidentified questioner asks witness Loftus about how memory can be affected by labeling. Loftus explains that applying labels to ambiguous objects (e.g., eyeglasses vs. dumbbells) or events (e.g., incident vs. fight) can alter how they are later remembered and constructed.
This document is a page from a court transcript filed on August 10, 2022, detailing the direct examination of a witness named Loftus. Loftus, likely an expert on memory, explains how labeling ambiguous objects or events can significantly alter a person's subsequent recollection. The testimony uses examples such as remembering an object as either 'eyeglasses' or 'dumbbells' and an event as an 'incident' versus a 'fight' to illustrate how labels shape memory construction.
