q3 i3 In experiment 1, reactivation strength affected item recognition for C items (η² = .38) while congruency did not. → Marlieke Tina Renée van Kesteren 2018

Experiment 1 ANOVA on item recognition; the reactivation main effect "F(2,30) = 5.44, P = .01, η2 = .38" (large, η² = .38) was significant while the congruency main effect was F < 1. In experiment 2 the pattern reversed, with congruency but not reactivation affecting item recognition.

"reactivation: F(2,30) = 5.44, P = .01, η2 = .38"

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Congruency and reactivation affect associative memory independently, with no congruency × reactivation interaction in either experiment — related
• Congruency enhanced item recognition of new descriptions in experiment 2 but not in experiment 1 — related
• Subjective reactivation of the prior-knowledge item during new learning enhances associative recall for inferred associations, for congruent and incongruent items alike — related
• Metamemory judgments after learning predicted subsequent memory, whereas curiosity ratings did not relate to memory — related
