After Teresa was verbally threatened by someone in a passing car, she was asked whether she recognized the man who was driving the car. Several hours later, Teresa mistakenly recalled that the driver was a male rather than a female. Teresa's experience best illustrates:.
a. implicit memory
b. proactive interference
c. the misinformation effect.
d. the testing effect

c. The misinformation effect.

Explanation:

This happens when a person's memory usually or implicitly comes in episodes and at same time is less accurate primarily because of post event information.

Its effect refers to the tendency for post-event information to interfere with the memory of the original event. Researchers  have shown that the introduction of even relatively subtle information following an event can have a dramatic effect on how people remember. The misinformation effect can lead to inaccurate memories and, in some cases, even result in the formation of false memories.
