1.If you were like most children,you probably got upset when your mother called you by a brother's or sister's name.How could she not know you?Did it mean she loved you less?
Probably not.According to the first research to deal with this topic head-on,misnaming the most familiar people in our life is a common cognitive (认知的) error that has to do with how our memories classify and store familiar names.
The study,published online in April in the journal Memory and Cognition,found that the "wrong" name is not random but is always fished out from the same relationship pond:children,friends,brothers and sisters.The study did not examine the possibility of deep psychological significance to the mistake,says psychologist David Rubin, "but it does tell us who's in and who's out of the group."
The study also found that within that group,misnamings occurred where the names shared initial or internal sounds,like Jimmy and Joanie or John and Bob.Physical resemblance between people was not a factor.Nor was gender.
The researchers conducted five separate surveys of more than 1,700 people.Some of the surveys included only college students;others were done with a mixed-age population.Some asked subjects about incidents where someone close to them – family or friend – had called them by another person's name.The other surveys asked about times when subjects had themselves called someone close to them by the wrong name.All the surveys found that people mixed up names within relationship groups such as grandchildren,friends and brothers and sisters but hardly ever crossed these boundaries.
In general,the study found that undergraduates were almost as likely as old people to make this mistake and men as likely as women.Older people and women made the mistake slightly more often,but that may be because grandparents have more grandchildren to mix up than parents have children.Also,mothers may call on their children more often than fathers,given traditional gender norms.There was no evidence that errors occurred more when the misnamer was frustrated,tired or angry.
