“There Were Spooks in the Park”: Children's Reminiscing with Parents and Siblings Following a Staged Halloween Event
This study examines children's reminiscing with different members of their family. Sociocultural research shows how mothers and fathers each scaffold children's memory narratives, yet it is not clear how children reminisce with siblings. We therefore captured multiple dyadic conversations from twelve young families including mother, father, and two children. In Session 1, families completed a Halloween-themed obstacle course. In Session 2, families reminisced in various combinations (mother-child, father-child, sibling-sibling). We coded conversations for their overarching approach, for the reminiscing style of each partne...

Knowing What Others Know: Younger and Older Adults’ Perspective-Taking and Memory for Medication Information
In this study, younger and older adults estimated their performance before and after a cued-recall memory task in which they studied medication–side-effect pairs. Participants also estimated the performance of a peer their own age, a medical student, and a person in the other age group (i.e., younger adults estimated older adults’ performance and vice versa). In Experiment 1, participants completed four study-test cycles, each with new pairs. In Experiment 2, the same pairs were presented throughout. Overall, participants initially overestimated their memory performance, but after the task, several judgments were close...

The Isolation Effect When Offloading Memory
Publication date: Available online 7 November 2019Source: Journal of Applied Research in Memory and CognitionAuthor(s): Megan O. Kelly, Evan F. RiskoOffloading is a widespread and vital strategy for remembering. Yet, we lack a deep understanding of the mechanisms involved during the offloading of to-be-remembered information. One hypothesis is that offloading information is associated with a reduced engagement of top-down mnemonic strategies. A resulting prediction is that phenomena not solely by-products of such mechanisms should remain during offloading. We tested this prediction using the isolation effect (when recall i...

Confidence and Response Time as Indicators of Eyewitness Identification Accuracy in the Lab and in the Real World
Publication date: Available online 6 November 2019Source: Journal of Applied Research in Memory and CognitionAuthor(s): Travis M. Seale-Carlisle, Melissa F. Colloff, Heather D. Flowe, William Wells, John T. Wixted, Laura MickesThe criminal justice system should consider the confidence an eyewitness expresses when making an identification at the time the initial lineup procedure is conducted. High confidence expressed at this time typically indicates high accuracy in the identification. Because the suspect identification—not filler identifications or no identifications – matters most in the court of law, confidence-accu...

Using Relevant Animations to Counter Stereotype Threat When Learning Science
Publication date: Available online 15 October 2019Source: Journal of Applied Research in Memory and CognitionAuthor(s): Christopher A. Sanchez, Karah WeberMuch research has supported the notion that adding relevant animations to science text can positively impact learning. Can relevant animations also provide an opportunity to address other issues that affect learning, specifically situations when learners are explicitly placed under stereotype threat? The current study extends work on both animations and stereotype threat by examining whether relevant imagery can positively address issues of stereotype threat. Participant...

Epistemic Authority in Communication Effects on Memory: Creating Shared Reality with Experts on the Topic
We examined whether participants are more likely to create a shared reality with a communication partner having high epistemic authority than with audiences having lower epistemic authority. In Experiment 1, participants described an ambiguously presented target person to a lay audience or an expert audience (a personnel psychologist) who judged the target in either a positive or negative way. In Experiment 2, we presented participants with ambiguous information about the utility of biofuel, and added a condition with a high-status audience who was an expert on a different topic. Across both studies, participants’ brief-...

Nonbelieved Memories in The False Memory Archive
Publication date: Available online 28 September 2019Source: Journal of Applied Research in Memory and CognitionAuthor(s): Henry Otgaar, Charlotte Bücken, Glynis Bogaard, Kimberley A. Wade, A.R. Hopwood, Alan Scoboria, Mark L. HoweThe False Memory Archive is a unique art collection containing hundreds of false memory reports submitted by members of the general population. The current study aimed to analyze these reports. Specifically, we examined whether some of the memories reported in these submissions were better described as nonbelieved memories (NBMs). Furthermore, we investigated the reasons for why people decided th...
