• Introduce modified recognition test.
• Predictions for recognition accuracy:
– Biased Guessing: Modified Misleading = control
– Memory Change: Modified Misleading < control
• misleading info should  memory for original info regardless of
test
Psyco 350 Lec #10– Slide 3
Rationale for Biased Guessing Prediction
Control Condition: “S”  no “Y”; test: “S” or “Y”
“S,” no “Y”
no “S,” no “Y”
Standard Test: “S”  “Y”; test: “S” or “Y”
“S,” no “Y”
“S,” “Y”
no “S,” “Y”
no “S,” no “Y”
Modified Test: “S”  “Y”; test: “S” or “Z”
“S,” no “Z”
no “S,” no “Z”

Misinformation Effect: My Take
Memory impairment, coexistence, & source monitoring errors are
not mutually exclusive
• As the work on Hindsight bias indicates, new information can:
– modify existing information
– coexist w/ existing information
– block access to existing information
•
Biased guessing is a problem in 2IFC situation – particularly
when target & misinformation are of equal strength
• Nonetheless, bias to select foil in standard condition, indicates
that post-event information is (some times) accepted as true &
incorporated into event representation.
Psyco 350 Lec #10– Slide 13
Inhibitory Processes
Inhibition – well established at neural level.
increased activation of one unit, decreases activation in
others.
Inhibition also observed in visual attention/object perceptions
Inhibition Processes in Memory Performance:
retrieval of ITEMI decreases the likelihood that ITEMJ will
be retrieved.
Assumption: Inhibition is an active process
Has the flavor of repression/suppression, but functions
to increase memory efficient not to “protect the self.”
Psyco 350 Lec #10– Slide 14
Retrieval Induced Forgetting
Anderson, Bjork, & Bjork (1994)
Aim: Demonstrate that retrieval can produce
forgetting
Materials:
• category-instance pairs
COLOR-red; PET-dog; FRUIT-apple
•
6 pairs/category:
Psyco 350 Lec #10– Slide 15
Anderson, Bjork, & Bjork (1994): Procedure
3-Phase Procedure:
• Study – each pair presented once for 5 s
• Retrieval Practice
–
complete category-stem w/ list instance
FRUIT– ap__
–
Each category-stem presented 3 times
20 minute delay
•
Test Phase
–
given each category name  recall all instances

if not rehearsed, being an instance of a practiced category
hinders recall.
Interpretation: UIPC inhibited during practice in order to make
retrieval of practiced items easer.

(Episodic) Memory Basic:
Implications for Forgetting
• Probability of recall decreases, as # of ERs
linked to a cued concept increases.
[interference]
---------------------------------------------------------------Other possible mechanisms:
• decay
• knowledge revision & biased reconstruction
• inhibition

Implicit Memory
“Any form of memory that does not require
consciousness and can operate without a
person being aware that he is using his
memory.” – Radvansky, p. 112
People “show evidence of memories for
experiences that they cannot consciously
retrieve.” Anderson, p. 298
“Memory without awareness” – Neath &
Supernant, p 139
Psyco 350 Lec #10– Slide 21
Implicit Memory
• Strategy for studying implicit memory:
– Demonstrate that prior experience affects
performance on tasks that do not require
retrieval or recognition of those prior
experiences.
Such test are called Indirect tests.
Psyco 350 Lec #10– Slide 22
Types of Memory Tests
Test
Direct (explicit)
Indirect (implicit)
recall, cued recall
recognition, recency
frequency
Word-related Test
fragment completion
word-stem completion
perceptual ID
lexical decision
word-association
general-knowledge
category-instance generation
Psyco 350 Lec #10– Slide 23
Judgments
fame
truth
liking
r-w estimation
Common Indirect Tests
Fragment Completion
• _e_e_c_
Lexical Decision
• word/non-word? TREB
• recency
Stem Completion
• fre_ _ _ _ _ _
• frequency
Anagrams:
• ticilipm
• implicit
Psyco 350 Lec #10– Slide 24
Perceptual Identification
read word (identify
object) presented VERY
briefly (e.g., 25 ms)
Evidence for Implicit Memory on Indirect Tests
• Indirect tests typically use improved
performance as the measure of implicit
memory
• Priming = the improvement in performance on
a subsequent occasion due to processing on a
previous occasion
Psyco 350 Lec #10– Slide 25
Priming Effects
Exp condition = a prior exposure to stim
Control = “no” prior exposure to stim
Priming:
• fragment, stem, anagram:
dv – % complete: exp > control
• Perceptional Identification:
dv -- % correct: exp > control
• Lexical Decision:
dv – RT: exp < control
Psyco 350 Lec #10– Slide 26
Dissociating Implicit & Explicit Memory
Dissociation: One variable affects one task
differently than it affects another

Results:

• frag unaffected by delay
Delay causes a
dissociation between
reco & frag tests.
Implication:
Test tap different “forms”
of memory.

Predictions:
• Recognition: deeper processing should produce
better performance.
• Percp ID: priming should become stronger as study
and test materials become more similar.

Transfer Appropriate Process: Theory
Assumes:
• Performance depends of match between
processing at study and processing at test.
Analogous to encoding specificity.
• Two-types of Processes
– Data-driven (perceptual) – processing of
physical features.
– Conceptually-driven (semantic) – processing
for meaning
