Journal Article
Carvalho, C., Mazzoni, G., & Kirsch, I. (2014). The effect of posthypnotic suggestion and task difficulty on adherence to health-related requests. Psychology of consciousness theory, research, and practice, 1(1), 92-102. https://doi.org/10.1037/cns0000006

The effects of posthypnotic suggestion on health-related behavior, using a behavioral measure of adherence were investigated. Three hundred twenty three students covering the full range of hypnotic suggestibility were prescribed an easy (mood rating)...

Selective voluntary forgetting in young and older adults (2014)
Journal Article
Aguirre, C., Gomez-Ariza, C. J., Bajo, M. T., Andrés, P., & Mazzoni, G. (2014). Selective voluntary forgetting in young and older adults. Psychology and Aging, 29(1), 128-139. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0035598

Aging is thought to involve a decline in executive-control capacities, although evidence regarding this claim is not always clear. Thus, although studies exist that suggest impoverished inhibitory memory control in older adults relative to younger ad... Read More about Selective voluntary forgetting in young and older adults.

Disowned recollections: Denying true experiences undermines belief in occurrence but not judgments of remembering (2013)
Journal Article
Mazzoni, G., Clark, A., & Nash, R. A. (2014). Disowned recollections: Denying true experiences undermines belief in occurrence but not judgments of remembering. Acta Psychologica, 145(1), 139-146. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actpsy.2013.11.007

Recent research findings have illustrated that false memories induced in the laboratory can be dissociated from the beliefs that the events had in fact occurred. In this study we assessed whether this dissociability is a quality peculiar to false mem...

Cue familiarity and ‘don’t know’ responding in episodic memory tasks (2013)
Journal Article
Mazzoni, G., Hanczakowski, M., Pasek, T., & Zawadzka, K. (2013). Cue familiarity and ‘don’t know’ responding in episodic memory tasks. Journal of Memory and Language, 69(3), 368-383. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jml.2013.04.005

Metacognitive monitoring and control are two interdependent mechanisms by which people regulate encoding and retrieval processes in memory. While much is known about monitoring, and how the results of monitoring processes affect control at encoding,... Read More about Cue familiarity and ‘don’t know’ responding in episodic memory tasks.

Contextual match and cue-independence of retrieval-induced forgetting: testing the prediction of the model by Norman, Newman, and Detre (2007). (2013)
Journal Article
Hanczakowski, M., & Mazzoni, G. (2013). Contextual match and cue-independence of retrieval-induced forgetting: testing the prediction of the model by Norman, Newman, and Detre (2007). Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 39(3), 953-958. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0030531

Retrieval-induced forgetting (RIF) is the finding of impaired memory performance for information stored in long-term memory due to retrieval of a related set of information. This phenomenon is often assigned to operations of a specialized mechanism r...

Neuroimaging resolution of the altered state hypothesis (2012)
Journal Article
Mazzoni, G., Venneri, A., McGeown, W. J., & Kirsch, I. (2013). Neuroimaging resolution of the altered state hypothesis. Cortex; a journal devoted to the study of the nervous system and behavior, 49(2), 400-410. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cortex.2012.08.005

A controversy in the field of hypnosis has centered on the question of whether there is a uniquely hypnotic state of consciousness and, if so, whether it is causally related to responsiveness to suggestion. Evidence from brain imaging studies has bee... Read More about Neuroimaging resolution of the altered state hypothesis.

True and false DRM memories: differences detected with an implicit task (2012)
Journal Article
Marini, M., Agosta, S., Mazzoni, G., Barba, G. D., & Sartori, G. (2012). True and false DRM memories: differences detected with an implicit task. Frontiers in Psychology, 3(AUG), 0 - 0. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2012.00310

Memory is prone to illusions. When people are presented with lists of words associated with a non-presented critical lure, they produce a high level of false recognitions (false memories) for non-presented related stimuli indistinguishable, at the ex...

Creating Non-Believed Memories for Recent Autobiographical Events (2012)
Journal Article
Clark, A., Nash, R. A., Fincham, G., & Mazzoni, G. (2012). Creating Non-Believed Memories for Recent Autobiographical Events. PLoS ONE, 7(3), 1334 - 1340. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0032998

A recent study showed that many people spontaneously report vivid memories of events that they do not believe to have occurred [1]. In the present experiment we tested for the first time whether, after powerful false memories have been created, debri...

Recalling unpresented hostile words: false memories predictors of traditional and cyberbullying (2012)
Journal Article
Vannucci, M., Nocentini, A., Mazzoni, G., & Menesini, E. (2012). Recalling unpresented hostile words: false memories predictors of traditional and cyberbullying. European journal of developmental psychology, 9(2), 182-194. https://doi.org/10.1080/17405629.2011.646459

This study investigated the relationship between hostile false memories (violent and verbal/aggressive) and engagement in traditional and cyberbullying, controlling for their co-occurrence. Two hundred eleven adolescents completed measures of traditi... Read More about Recalling unpresented hostile words: false memories predictors of traditional and cyberbullying.

Suggested visual hallucination without hypnosis enhances activity in visual areas of the brain (2012)
Journal Article

This functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) study investigated high and low suggestible people responding to two visual hallucination suggestions with and without a hypnotic induction. Participants in the study were asked to see color while loo... Read More about Suggested visual hallucination without hypnosis enhances activity in visual areas of the brain.
