Source memory is a type of memory that differentiates information from other information, where more contextual properties of that information are stored. Recently, researchers have shown increased attention in the effect of the information obtained from social interactions, which are a part of social life, on source memory. This paper aims to review recent researches into the underly-ing mechanisms of social source memory. In the first part of this review summarized the assumptions put forward about social interactions. In the next two chapters, the faces of which the behavior details are given and the social information obtained from the social cooperation game (or the prisoner’s dilemma) are viewed in terms of how they affect source memory performance. There seems to be a greater tendency towards negative information in the process of monitoring the source of social information. However, it would be a simple explanation. In general, source memory seems to be a categorical remembering process. The fact that the source memory does not point to a remembering process with all the details known causes memory biases. When memory is weak, it becomes difficult to trace the source of information. In such a case, the schemas, beliefs, expectations, or stereotypes are mostly effective in referring to the source of information. For this reason, it is essential to consider source memory biases in order to prevent false information. Understanding the underlying mechanism of source memory will shed light on eyewitnesses, mainly.

Sosyal Kaynak Belleği: Sosyal Etkileşimde Bulunduğumuz Kişileri Nasıl Hatırlıyoruz?

Öz

Kaynak belleği, bir bilgiyi diğer bilgilerden farklılaştıran, o bilginin daha çok bağlamsal özelliklerinin saklandığı bir bellek tü-rüdür. Sosyal hayatın bir parçası olan sosyal etkileşimlerden elde ettiğimiz bilgilerin kaynak belleği üzerindeki etkisi son zaman-larda araştırmacıların ilgisini çekmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı sosyal kaynak belleğinin temel mekanizmalarını açıklamaya yönelik olan çalışmaları derlemektir. Bu derlemenin ilk bölümünde sosyal etkileşim ilgili öne sürülen varsayımlar özetlenmiştir. Sonraki iki bölümde sırasıyla davranış detayları verilen yüzlerin ve sosyal işbirliği oyunundan (tutsak ikileminden) elde edilen sosyal bilginin kaynak belleği performansını nasıl etkilediği incelenmiştir. Sosyal bilgiye ilişkin kaynağın izlenmesi sürecinde negatif bilgiye daha çok eğilim gösterildiği görünmektedir. Ancak bu basit bir açıklama olacaktır. Genel olarak, kaynak belleği kategorik bir hatırlama sürecini gösteriyor gibi görünmektedir. Kaynak belleğinin bütün detayları bilinen bir hatırlama sürecine işaret etmemesi bellek yanlılıklarına sebep olmaktadır. Bellek bilgisinin zayıf olduğu durumlarda bilginin kaynağını takip ede-bilmek zorlaşır. Bu gibi bir durumda bilginin kaynağını atfederken daha çok kişinin sahip olduğu şemalar, inançlar, beklentiler veya kalıp yargılar etkili olur. Bu sebeple kaynak belleği yanlılıklarını araştırmak yanlış bilgi atfını önlemek için önemlidir. Kaynak belleğinin temel işleyiş mekanizmasını anlamak özellikle görgü tanıklığı konusuna ışık tutacaktır.
