Context-Dependent Recognition Is Related to Specific Processes Taking Place at Encoding and at Retrieval

Abstract: Context Effect (CE) refers to the facilitation of memory for target information due to the similarity of contextual information available during both learning and retrieval. Many studies have attempted to identify variables that influence this effect, producing inconsistent findings due to differences in how target and context information are defined and measured. In the current study, recognition memory for faces was tested under different learning instructions and diverse context-recognition conditions. When… Show more

“…Our third guiding principle was to instruct participants to associate target items with their accompanying contexts at study; such an instruction has been shown to yield robust context reinstatement effects (e.g., Burgess et al, 2017; Eich, 1985; Hockley, 2008). Although attention is directed toward the context stimuli at encoding with this method, participants are never told to remember the contexts either as cues or as targets, nor are the video context stimuli necessary for performing on the test trials (i.e., anagram solving and word fragment completion); these are criteria involved in defining contexts and in distinguishing contexts from test stimuli (Silberg & Vakil, 2017).…”
