Abstract
The purpose of present study is determining semantic network for selected Persian words and designing false memory scale (examination) based on it. This present research is cross sectional studies. In this research, two studies were designed. In the first study, selected word presented to 30 individuals and they should write down related word with free association. Key words (Critical Lure) selected from Roediger Mc Dermot (1995) in false memory scale. In the second study, list of words presented Without key words to 80 participants and recall and recognition of words were measured. Descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation test was used for analysis. Findings show that recall and recognition were significantly correlated (P< 0/001). Key words recall and list word recall are significantly correlated (r=0/66). Recall and recognition are significantly correlated (r= 0/41). Participants recall 19% and recognize 51% of words. Present study prepare word list for false memory test that can be used for study false memory in Persian language.
