Remember-Know: A Matter of Confidence.

Abstract: This article critically examines the view that the signal detection theory (SDT) interpretation of the remember-know (RK) paradigm has been ruled out by the evidence. The author evaluates 5 empirical arguments against a database of 72 studies reporting RK data under 400 different conditions. These arguments concern (a). the functional independence of remember and know rates, (b). the invariance of estimates of sensitivity, (c). the relationship between remember rates and overall hit and false alarm rates, (d).… Show more

“…In this paradigm, partici-pants are instructed to give a "know" response if the test item only seems familiar, while they must give a "remember" response if they consciously recall having seen the test item before. It is unclear to what extent this subjective experience actually dissociates between two qualitatively different processes, or even if the two responses arise from different processes at all (W. Donaldson, 1996;Hirshman & Master, 1997;Dunn, 2004Dunn, , 2008.…”

“…Application of self-perception theory to confidence research is a common complicating factor in assessing theoretical relations to confidence. Indeed, many other theories obfuscate this picture including dual process models of information processing (Healy, Light, & Chung, 2005), signal detection theory (Dunn, 2004), and facial recognition theories (Weber & Brewer, 2003).…”

“…That these processes retrieve different kinds of information implies that item and associative information are stored separately and may be represented in qualitatively different forms accessible only to particular processes. However, arguments in favor of this view have relied on measures of recognition accuracy that are not diagnostic of the types of processes involved (Dunn, 2004(Dunn, , 2008Wixted, 2007;Pratte & Rouder, 2012) and that are only reliable under the strong assumption of item and associative independence (Curran & Hintzman, 1995;Hillstrom & Logan, 1997;Ratcliff et al, 1995). In contrast, item and associative memory are often correlated: Item recognition is affected by the presence of an intact association, even when it is irrelevant to the task (Tulving & Thompson, 1973;Clark & Shiffrin, 1987) and while participants are able to separately assess memory for items and associations, they are influenced by the strength of both items and associations when doing so (Buchler et al, 2008;Aue et al, 2017).…”
