The answer is the misinformation effect.

Anterograde amnesia refers to the inability to form new memories after the onset of amnesia. This does not relate to the scenario where an attorney uses misleading questions to distort a witness's recall.

The misinformation effect occurs when a person's recall of an event becomes less accurate due to the introduction of misleading information. This is exactly what is happening when an attorney uses misleading questions to distort a witness's memory of a crime.

Positive transfer refers to the improvement in performance on one task due to the experience of another, similar task. This concept does not apply to the scenario described.

Proactive interference occurs when older memories interfere with the retrieval of newer memories. This is not relevant to the scenario where misleading questions are used to distort memory.
