Popis: | The effects of list-method directed forgetting on recognition memory were explored. In Experiment 1 ( N = 40), observers were instructed to remember words and their type-cases; in Experiment 2 ( N = 80), the instruction was to remember words and their colours. Two lists of 10 words were presented; after the first list, half of the observers ( forget) were instructed to forget that list, and the other half ( remember) were not given the forget instruction. Recognition of items (words) as well as source (encoding list + case/colour) was measured for forget and remember observers. The forget instruction affected case/colour memory more consistently than item and list memory; a multinomial analysis indicated that source information was affected by the forget instructions. The results indicated that recognition of source information may be a more sensitive indicator of forgetting than recognition of items. |
