Over-Regularization Errors

Overregularization errors are a type of errors in which one perceives or remembers a word or event as being closer to the 'norm' than it really is.

For example,

  • misspelled words are read as though they were spelled correctly
  • atypical events are misremembered in a way that brings them closer to more typical events
  • words with an irregular past tense (such as 'ran') are replaced with a regular past tense ('runned'), etc.
