Detailed explanation-3: -There is currently no way to distinguish, in the absence of independent evidence, whether a particular memory is true or false. Even memories which are detailed and vivid and held with 100 percent conviction can be completely false.”

Detailed explanation-4: -False memory refers to cases in which people remember events differently from the way they happened or, in the most dramatic case, remember events that never happened at all.
