<unk>  is distinguished from lying as there is no intent to deceive and the person is unaware the information is false. Although individuals can present blatantly false information,<unk>  can also seem to be coherent, internally consistent, and relatively normal. Most known cases of<unk>  are symptomatic of brain damage or dementias, such as aneurysm, Alzheimer's disease, or Wernicke–Korsakoff syndrome (a common manifestation of thiamine deficiency caused by alcohol use disorder). Additionally<unk>  often occurs in people who are suffering from anticholinergic toxidrome when interrogated about bizarre or irrational behaviour. Confabulated memories of all types most often occur in autobiographical memory and are indicative of a complicated and intricate process that can be led astray at any point during encoding, storage, or recall of a memory. This type of<unk>  is commonly seen in Korsakoff's syndrome. Distinctions Two types of<unk>  are often distinguished: * Provoked (momentary, or secondary)<unk> s represent a normal response to a faulty memory, are common in both amnesia and dementia, and can become apparent during memory tests. * Spontaneous (or primary)<unk> s do not occur in response to a cue and seem to be involuntary. They are relatively rare, more common in cases of dementia, and may result from the interaction between frontal lobe pathology and organic amnesia. Another distinction is that between: * Verbal<unk> s- spoken false memories, most common type * Behavioral<unk> s- occur when an individual acts on their false memories
