young people have better memory but older people are less suggestible
children-8yrs average
young adults-17 yrs average
old adults-70 years average
they were the experimental groups
witnessed kidnapping video and asked questions
experimental groups fed misleading information
results: young adults have best memory.old people have 66 right memory and young adults have 77 percent right memory
however old people are less suggestible because when they were fed misleading info after ,they didn't have their memory 'changed'
old: from 66 to 50 percent(lose 10 percent memory after midleasding info fed to them)
young: from 77 to 52 percent (lose 25 percent memory after misleading info fed to them)
