Abstract

A method for operating a semiconductor memory device may include applying a program pulse for programming data of a first page included in the semiconductor memory device. The method may include determining whether the number of times of applying the program pulse has exceeded a first critical value. The method may include performing an error bit check on a second page coupled to the same word line as the first page, based on the determined result of whether the first critical value has been exceeded.
