The distinctiveness effect in the absence of conscious recollection: evidence from conceptual priming

Article Abstract:

A study to test whether the distinctiveness effect in memory occurs only with conscious recollection or could emerge with recapitulation of the type of processing that occurred in the absence of recollection at test with participants studying lists of categorically isolated exemplars in an experiment is presented. Results show that distinctiveness effect can occur in the absence of conscious recollection and suggests that evaluative processing mediates the distinctive effect.

Recollection and familiarity in recognition memory: Evidence from ROC curves

Article Abstract:

A hypothesis is presented that dual process models can predict an increase in performance in no-new compared to with-new experiments if the exclusion of the new test items allowed recollection. Single process models provided the best trade-off between goodness-of-fit and model complexity and dual process models were able to account for the data only when they incorporated continuous evidence sensitive to details.

Meaning's moderating effect on recollection rejection

Article Abstract:

The importance of meaning in facilitating recollection rejection in the memory conjunction paradigm is investigated. The findings suggest an important role for the amount of conceptual similarity shared between related lures and their corresponding study items in evoking recollection rejection, with an emphasis placed on the role of interference in generating the effect.
