Abstract

The false-recognition effect was demonstrated for test words that were associatively related to prior stimulus words. The extent of the effect was seemingly independent of the presence/absence of a semantic relationship between test and stimulus words. In addition, the extent of the effect covaried positively with the degree of associative relatedness between experimental test words and prior stimulus words when false recognition was measured by a relative score derived from confidence ratings. The results favored the implicit associative response hypothesis.
