Abstract
Interference permits to explain some of the complexities of classical phenomena of cognitive development. This chapter discusses a collection of cognitive phenomena using different theories. These include inferential remembering, source confusions, suggestibility and autosuggestibility, and reasoning errors in a variety of paradigms. This chapter begins with an introduction to the general issue of the relationship between memory and reasoning. It also discusses how multiple verbatim and gist memories can lead to interference, and introduce taxonomy of interference effects. The taxonomy is used to explore commonalities among apparently disparate phenomena such as gist-based interference in memory and reasoning. The chapter closes with an account on the implications of interference for constructive memory and for conceptions of reasoning competence.
