“…For each participant, three of the new tunes paired with old scenes were randomly assigned to the matched condition and the remaining three to the mismatched condition. The percentage hit rate in each cue condition was then evaluated relative to the percentage of false alarms and transformed into d¢ and B values using the procedure developed by Hochhaus (1972). The results are shown in Table 2.…”

“…In order to assess the discrimination of matched from mismatched pairs, independent of response bias effects, a d¢ analysis was conducted from a procedure reported by Hochhaus (1972). For each condition of the experiment, hit rates were evaluated relative to false alarms and then transformed into d¢ and bias values by using the abscissa and ordinate values of the standardized normal distribution.…”

“…The table gives two-decimal {3 values for various combinations of hit and false-alarm rates. Related tables were published earlier: Elliott (1964) tabulated a measure of sensitivity (d'), another major parameter in signal detection theory; Freeman (1973) tabulated both d' and {3; Hochhaus (1972) provided a table to assist in calculation of d' and {3. McGowan and Appel (1977) developed APL functions to compute d', {3, and analogous nonparametric measures.…”

Gardner, Dalsing, Reyes, and Brake (1984) where Hand F are the ordinates of the standard normal distribution at the points where the tail areas of the distribution are equivalent to the hit rate and the false-alarm rate, respectively. That is, H is the ordinate of the signalplus-noise distribution at the criterion, and F is the ordinate of the noise-alone distribution at the criterion. Gescheider (1985, chap. 4) and Hochhaus (1972) concisely described computation of {3.To test the accuracy of the Gardner et al. (1984) The magnitude of {3 indicates the stringency of the criterion an observer uses in deciding to report detection of a signal. High {3 signifies a strict criterion; low {3 signifies a lax criterion. {3 can be determined from the relationship between (1) the proportion of trials in which the observer reports a signal when the signal is present (the hit rate) and (2) the proportion of trials in which the observer reports a signal when the signal is absent (the falsealarm rate). Values of {3 are calculated by the equationrors occur primarily at low levels of the false-alarm rate, but every page of the table contains some errors.

“…To examine the general RM accuracy data, d' scores were derived from performance on old and on unrelated words following procedures outlined by Green and Swets (1966) and using tables provided by Hochhaus (1972) for the children. The difference between the neutral and repetition conditions was of borderline significance for the children (.10> p > .05) but did not approach significance for the adults.…”

In four experiments Ss were instructed to learn a set of 40 words by producing implicit associative responses to each item (association instructions), by repeating items over and over (repetition instruction), or by using their own devices (neutral instructions). Experiment I showed that recognition memory (RM) accuracy was greatest under association instructions for adults and children and least under repetition instructions for children. The implications of these results for a frequency theory analysis for RM were discussed. Experiments II, III, and IV examined free recall (FR) as a function of encoding instructions at short (1 min) and long (either 90 min or 24 h) retention intervals. FR was worst under repetition instructions, with little overall difference between the association and neutral conditions. However, in Experiments III and IV, using school children, the neutral condition exceeded the others in FR after 90 min but not after 1 min.
