Immediately after the scan and without previous warning, participants were given a short word recollection test containing a combination of experimental and novel distracter words.
While each of these lines of evidence alone have been cited in the past as evidence that implicit test performance was not due to explicit memory retrieval, collectively, these four lines of evidence make it nearly impossible that participants engaged in explicit recollection on this implicit memory test and that such explicit recollection is responsible for the results obtained [45], [46].
Elle has no recollection of the tests, and Noah suggests the Haitian had a role in causing Elle to forget her experiences.
The 4-6-week period between test and retest balanced potential recollection bias (retest being influenced by the patients' possible recollections of his or her previous responses) against the likelihood of real change in the disease during the test-retest interval.
The results of five new experimental recognition memory tests tapping recollection and familiarity using verbal, topographical (buildings and landscapes) and unknown human faces memoranda revealed striking differential effects according to the type of stimuli used.
Signal detection measures, (d′ and c), and recollection and familiarity estimates are reported in Table 6.
Thus the battery, which asks one's reaction to pictorial situations and tests recollections of words and objects.
The data reported here extend previous work to a criterial recollection paradigm and to a recognition memory test.
Three recent studies sought to address this issue using tests of source recollection, autobiographical recall, and remember/know judgments.
In the present investigation, we tested, first, whether subclinically depressed participants demonstrated impaired recollection and intact familiarity for pictures, and second, whether emotion can modulate picture memory.
It has also been suggested that characteristics of the sample, maturity level, changes in the respondent's emotional state, differences in the testing situation, recollection of previous answers, and difficulty with understanding items and the construct being tested can all affect how participants respond to items on two different occasions [ 56].
