In "Bluebird: Deliberate Creation of Multiple Personality by Psychiatrists," Ross defines the Manchurian Candidate as an unwitting patient with a new identity created deliberately and implanted in the individual by the CIA. In addition, amnesia barriers are created to ensure no memory of the unethical experiments has occurred, and this person is used in simulated or actual operations. Included in Ross' lecture will be accounts of how some experiments are used on unwitting civilians, even pregnant women and children. Ross' research includes discovery of experimentation on terminal cancer patients, imprisoned drug addicts and sex offenders, psychiatric patients and military personnel. Ross' lecture will be held at 4 p.m. in 227 Herter Hall at UMass and will include undergraduate research poster presentations on May 3 at 11:30 a.m. in the Tobin-Bartlett breezeway. The lecture is sponsored by UMass's department of psychology and the Psi Chi Honor Society's Fourth Annual Undergraduate Psychology Conference on May 2 to May 3." http://media.www.dailycollegian.com/media/storage/paper874/news/2007/04/30/News/Researcher.To.Speak.On.Link.Between.Cia.And.Multiple.Personality.Disorder-2887107.shtml Study: Kids less prone to false memories Ithaca, N.Y., 5/2/07 (UPI) "A U.S. psychological study suggests children are less prone to experiencing false memories than are adults. The finding by Cornell University psychologists Charles Brainerd and Valerie Reyna has implications for court testimony. Previous studies have indicated false memories of events were found to decrease with age throughout childhood and adolescence. In other words, as people grow into adulthood, their memory accuracy improves. But in the new research, Brainerd and Reyna discovered the incidence of false memory actually increases with age under certain circumstances. That suggests adults have less accurate memories than do children. Brainerd and Reyna said the reasoning behind the phenomenon is straightforward: Because children lack a sophisticated ability to connect the meanings of words or events, as compared with adolescents and adults, they are buffered from making the semantic relation memory mistake. The researchers said their finding might have significant implications for the credibility of child testimony. The research is detailed in the May issue of Psychological Science." http://www.sciencedaily.com/upi/index.php?feed=Science & article=UPI-1-20070502-13490000-bc-us-falsememories.xml See what's free at AOL.com.
