You read a story in the news about a man who claims during therapy to have recovered previously repressed memories that he was molested by his teacher as a young boy. The teacher denies the allegations vehemently
Based on information from your text on the recovered memory debate, what should you conclude?

Answer: It is most likely that the man did not recover any memories. It is more likely that his therapist suggested that he was abused sexually as a boy, and that this helped him to unwittingly create a false memory.
