In this study, memory monitoring process ("Feeling of Knowing" judgement process) was used to examine the difference of the depressed and the nondepressed in self-perception. 40 stimulus-response pairs of noun were presented to the subjects serially. After the presentation procedure, subjects were instructed to recall the response word for each stimulus word. Then, they were asked to predict their possibility of recognition for each stimulus word in recognition task. Finally, 4-alternative forced choice recognition task was administered. This was compared with the real recognition performance of those items. As result, there was no difference in memory performance or memory perception ability between the depressed and the nondepressed. However, the depressed person's expectation of recognition task performance was lower than that of the nondepressed. The depressed underestimated their memory ability relative to the real performance. This result supported Beck's cognitive model of depression.
