Knowledge supports memory retrieval through familiarity, not recollection.
Our results revealed a surprising pattern: Episodic retrieval of known statements recruited regions associated with familiarity, but not recollection.
That is, although Experiment 1 places a question mark over whether or not recollection and familiarity differ in retrieval, subjective reports of the experience of remembering remain a useful and valid means to study them.
This model makes two key predictions: First, familiarity is similar to, and should vary with, confidence while recollection should not; and second, familiarity, but not recollection, should be subject to fluency manipulations.
For example, in two recent studies, activity in the perirhinal cortex during encoding predicted subsequent recollection of object features (Staresina and Davachi, 2008) and of objects associated with scenes but not recollection of the scenes (Awipi and Davachi, 2008).
