| Question | Answer |
| Loftus & Palmer 1974 Methodology | 2 experiments Laboratory Independent Groups Design Exp 1: 45 students/9 Pp's Exp 2: 150 students/50 Pp's |
| Loftus & Palmer 1974 Procedures Experiment 1 | 7 Film Clips= 5-30 sec. Pp's given questionnaire Critical Q's "About how fast were the cars going when they______each other?" Smashed, Collided, Bumped, Hit, Contacted |
| Loftus & Palmer 1974 Procedures Experiment 2 Part 1 | 1 Film clip w/ multiple car crash Accident less than 4 sec. Group 1: "...SMASHED into each other?" Group 2: "...HIT into each other?" Group 3: Control group - No Q was asked |
| Loftus & Palmer 1974 Procedures Experiment 2 Part 2 | 1 week later "Did you see any broken glass?" -NO broken glass presented |
| Loftus & Palmer 1974 Conclusions | Findings indicate for of question (changes in single words) & systematically affect witnesse's answer to Q's. |
| Loftus & Palmer 1974 Conclusions 1.) Response-Bias Factors | Different speed estimates occur because critical word influences or biases person's response. |
| Loftus & Palmer 1974 Conclusions 2.) Memory representation altered | Critical word changes a person's memory so perception of accident is affected. Some words lead perception of accident more serious. |
| Loftus & Palmer 1974 Conclusions Is memory representation altered true? | Would expect Pp's to "remember" other details not true. 2nd experiment asked w/ "Smashed" - Any broken glass? Were more likely to say 'Yes'. |
| Loftus & Palmer 1974 Conclusions What does leading questions alter? | Leading Q's NOT result of Response-Bias but actually leading Q's altered memory a person had for event. |
