Abstract

Objective: Whereas some studies have suggested that source monitoring is significantly associated with working memory and inhibitory control, both of which are components of executive functioning, other studies have argued otherwise. The author of this study determined that such contradictory findings are a result of heterogeneity in the assessment methods for source monitoring. Therefore, this study aimed at exploring whether the relationships among source monitoring, working memory, and inhibitory control may be altered depending on the differences of source recall conditions. Methods: Eighty children aged 5-8 years saw interesting activities via two different sources. Their source memories on the activity were assessed subsequently. The children were assigned to either the "continuous" source recall group or "non-continuous" source recall group. Both groups participated in working memory and inhibitory control tasks. Results: The results showed that working memory was significantly related to source monitoring regardless of the condition of source recall (continuous vs non-continuous). On the other hand, inhibitory control was significantly associated with source monitoring only in the non-continuous source recall group. Conclusion: Based on these results, the author discussed the need to consider the conditions of source recall during investigative interviews with children in order to induce accurate source monitoring, as part of our effort to interpret the inconsistency of results in the literature and to draw potential applications.
