DRM paradigm for people's name lures and effects of delaying conscious thought of the lure at encoding.
The experiment was conducted to test whether or not presentation order is an important factor to explain why Critical Lures of people's names are falsely recalled relatively rarely in the Deese-Roediger-McDermott paradigm. For half of the participants, the most highly associated items were presented at the start of the list (Standard condition). For the other half, presentation of the most strongly associated items was delayed until the middle of the list (Delayed condition). This manipulation had no significant effect on the probability of falsely recalled Critical Lures or on that of veridical recall of list items, but in the Delayed condition the mean number of intrusions other than the Critical Lures was higher than that in the Standard condition.
