Time Individuals may not be actively rehearsing the details of a given event after encoding, as psychologists have found that the likelihood of incorporating misinformation increases as the delay between the original event and post-event information increases. Furthermore, more time to study the original event  leads to lower susceptibility to the misinformation effect, due to increased rehearsal time. Elizabeth Loftus coined the term discrepancy detection principle for her observation that a person´ s recollections are more likely to change , if they do not immediately detect the discrepancies between misinformation and the original event. At times people recognize a discrepancy between their memory and what they are being told. People might recollect, "I thought I saw a stop sign, but the new information mentions a yield sign, I guess I must be wrong, it was a yield sign." Although the individual recognizes the information as conflicting with their own memories  they still adopt it as true. If these discrepancies are not immediately detected they are more likely to be incorporated into memory.
