    distortion

    Explanation:

    Memory distortion: The memories formed in human beings are not recorded exactly related to any event. Therefore, it can be reconstructed in various ways after the actual event has happened which implies that the memory formed can be distorted by various factors, for example, source amnesia, hindsight bias, schemas, and misinformation effect, etc.

    Memory distortion can also occur if a specific memory related to something is not being recorded properly or because of memory failure.

    In the question above, the category of memory failure which is associated with the seven sins of memory is exemplified by distortion.
