  7. 7Rebuttals have been made to the claim that there is an "epidemic of false memories of childhood sexual abuse being implanted in clients by therapists. These do NOT include :
    1. AThis claim is intended to undermine the credibility of abused women and silence their accusations.
    2. BMemory experiments in laboratories involving word stimuli do not represent the emotional, wrenching recollections of abuse survivors.
    3. CBecause there is (often) no direct evidence of abuse, when a person later becomes convinced the memories were not true, that does not necessarily mean the memories were falsely implanted.
    4. DThe content of the memories retrieved is often filled with details and features that clients would never have seen or even considered before.
  8. 8In the class experiment concerning 'Ants and Jelly', the mean confidence of subjects recognizing the "FOURS" sentences was expected to be the highest, and usually was (although not in all tutorials). What is most surprising about this finding is:
    1. Aevery single sentence actually read out had more than four words
    2. Bevery single sentence actually read out had fewer than four propositions
    3. C"old" sentences which also had four propositions were less likely to be recognised
    4. D"noncase" sentences which contained equal numbers of propositions were less likely to be recognized
    5. Eit demonstrates that memory for more complex sentences is actually better
  9. 9In the class experiment concerning 'Ants and Jelly', it was predicted (and it was almost always found) that subjects correctly and confidently stated that they had not heard sentences in the "noncases" condition. This is most likely because:
    1. Anoncase sentences were, on average, shorter than those sentences read out
    2. Bnoncase sentences were constructed from the same sentences as found in the "old" condition, but the word order of the propositions was reversed
    3. Cnoncase sentences were not constructed from the same propositions found in the sentences which were read out
    4. Dthe meaning of noncase sentences conflicted with the meaning implied by the propositions which were read out
    5. Ethe noncase sentences were ungrammatical, so were easily identified as new
  10. 10In the class experiment concerning 'Ants and Jelly', the findings suggested:
    1. Athat recognition confidence is in no way related to the number of propositions a sentence contains
    2. Bthat recognition confidence for 'old' items was very poor in comparison to that for sentences containing two propositions
    3. Ca link between the number of propositions a sentence contained and recognition confidence
    4. Dstrong memory for the surface structure of sentences
    5. Epoor memory for the meaning of propositions
