- 1Glanzer and Cunitz (1966)Aim: to examine if the position of words in a list affects recalling.
Procedure: 240 US army men were allocated to one of two conditions: immediate recall or distraction task of 30 seconds.
Findings: distraction task did not affect primacy effect, although it did affect recency effect. - 2Landry and Bartling (2011)Aim: to test WMM by investigating if articulatory suppression would influence recall.
Procedure: 34 university students were asked to memorize a list of words, with half of them doing articulatory suppression.
Findings: Those who did the suppression task performed much lower than those who didn't. - 3Brewer and Treyens (1981)Aim: to investigate the role of schemas in econding and retrieving episodic memories.
Procedure: 86 university students were placed in an office for 35 seconds, and then asked to recall the objects they saw in one of three ways: by drawing them, by simply enumerating them, or by describing them (in paper) and then identifying them from a list.
Findings: participants that draw or wrote were more likely to follow the office schema (recall expected items and forget unexpected ones). Choosing from a list=more likely to remember abnormal objects but also office objects that were not present. In both drawing and recall conditions participants change the physical attributes to match their schema. - 4Loftus and Pickrell (1995)Aim: to determine if false autobiographical events can be created through suggestion.
Procedure: 3 males and 21 females were asked to fill a questionnaire of 4 childhood memories, one of which was false. Then, they were interviewed twice.
Findings: Only a fourth of participants claimed to remember the false memory, although they rated it lower in confidence and provided less details. - 5Forwood et al (2013)Aim: to determine if calories estimates are a product of anchoring bias or averaging effect.
