In five experiments, we examined the influence of production on true and false memory in the DRM paradigm. In Experiments 1a, 1b, 3a, and 3b, reading aloud was compared to reading silently. In Experiment 2, reading aloud was compared to reading silently while hearing the words spoken by another voice. In all experiments, reading aloud consistently resulted in better recognition of studied words, but it also consistently resulted in more false alarms to unstudied lures that were semantically related to the studied words. We advance an argument based on current theoretical accounts of false memory wherein reading aloud selectively enhances relational or gist processing—the encoding of shared features across items—rather than item or verbatim processing—the encoding of specific details of individual items. This selective enhancement could be for the shared semantic network (gist), for the shared context of reading aloud (misattributed source memory), or for both. Thus, the benefit of production is best captured by the combination of adding new features (contextual information) together with enriching existing features (semantic information).</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16493,"journal":{"name":"Journal of memory and language","volume":"140 ","pages":"Article 104584"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142657498","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used Signal Detection Theory (SDT), in conjunction with Expected Information Gain (EIG), to explain why conservative responding with standard simultaneous lineup procedures is detrimental to gathering information about the guilt or innocence of suspects. We also show that a different lineup procedure, the ranking lineup, should largely avoid this loss of information. These SDT predictions were tested in two experiments that manipulated response conservativeness in terms of instructions to the witness and/or witness confidence levels. The results showed strong evidence for the predicted pattern. That is, conservative responding substantially decreased the information value of witness responses in simultaneous lineups, but not ranking lineups. Critically, conservative responding in the simultaneous procedure specifically decreased the ability to gain evidence of innocence, revealing a cost that offsets the benefit of reduced false identifications. The ranking procedure, in contrast, provided strong evidence of innocence even when false identification rates were low. These results have significant implications for policy recommendations in police lineups and suggest that eyewitness researchers need to consider information-theory measures in the attempt to find procedures that best serve the goal of protecting innocent suspects.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16493,"journal":{"name":"Journal of memory and language","volume":"140 ","pages":"Article 104581"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142657534","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These failures are accompanied by varied mental experiences (phenomenology), but little research has been done to distinctly characterize their full range. The present studies examined the extent to which varying failures, ranging from imminent retrieval like tip-of-the-tongue states to unavailability, are associated with distinct phenomenological experiences. Proposing a Proximity to Retrieval Success framework for retrieval failures, we hypothesize that the probability of retrieval success (accessibility) will vary systematically from high to low, with intermediate probabilities reflecting a Zone of Proximal Retrieval. Older and younger adults answered age-normed, short-answer general knowledge questions and selected one of four phenomenological retrieval failure experiences when unable to answer. In Experiment 1, participants completed a subsequent multiple-choice test, whereas Experiments 2 and 3 involved correct answer feedback before completing a final short-answer test. Consistently, and in line with predictions from the Proximity to Retrieval Success framework, accuracy on the subsequent test systematically increased as a function of the selected phenomenological retrieval failure state’s proximity to the accessibility threshold, with the lowest accuracy for items judged as not known. These findings indicate robust successful metacognition linking phenomenological experiences of retrieval failures with behavioral memory performance. Implications for the practical and theoretical usefulness of this work are discussed.

There is also little research on whether activation of alternatives differs by the grammatical role of the prime, despite differences in the focus-related properties of subjects versus objects. We present two cross-modal lexical decision experiments showing activation of non-contrastive associates is suppressed with contrastive focus, consistent with a suppression mechanism, at least for objects.

A dramatic challenge to this self-consistency assumption came from two self-paced reading experiments in English (Tabor et al. 2004). Using a syntactic and a syntactic–semantic manipulation, Tabor et al. (2004) found that participants read a string of words more slowly if the string could locally form a grammatical structure that is <em>un</em>grammatical given the preceding words. In the years since, such local coherence effects, and in particular syntactic local coherence effects, have generated much debate about the nature of human sentence parsing, and have become a central explanandum for psycholinguistic theories. Despite this attention, to our knowledge no one has directly attempted to replicate the claimed effects. Here, we present a large-sample replication attempt using the original Tabor et al. (2004) syntactic and syntactic–semantic local coherence design using two methods (self-paced reading and bidirectional self-paced reading). A Bayes factor analysis shows evidence <em>against</em> a large, immediate effect of syntactic local coherence in reading, and only anecdotal evidence for a syntactic–semantic local coherence effect, but only in bidirectional self-paced reading. In this paradigm, there are also large effects of local coherence on rereading, which may be due to error recovery mechanisms, and which do not affect all participants. Our results suggest that the original effect sizes, especially for the much-debated early syntactic local coherence effect, are likely to be overestimates due to low power in the original Tabor et al. (2004) study. An important implication for psycholinguistic theory is that the challenge to self-consistency posed by local coherence effects is not as strong as previously believed.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16493,"journal":{"name":"Journal of memory and language","volume":"140 ","pages":"Article 104578"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142657531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The reactivity effect was measured in a related word pair learning task, and each of four higher-order cognitive constructs, including working memory capacity (WMC), attentional control (AC), episodic memory (EM), and general fluid intelligence (gF), was assessed by multiple tasks. The results showed that making JOLs enhanced cued recall of related word pairs, reflecting an overall positive reactivity effect. WMC independently and positively predicted JOL reactivity and this prediction effect survived when controlling for the prediction effects of other cognitive constructs. After controlling for the effects of WMC, EM, and gF, AC negatively predicted JOL reactivity. Neither EM nor gF predicted reactivity. These findings lend support to the learning engagement and dual-task costs theories to jointly account for the JOL reactivity effect.
