In two experiments, we investigated whether re-exposure to previously studied items at test affects false recognition in the DRM paradigm. Furthermore, we examined whether exposure to the critical lure at test influences memory for subsequently presented study items. In Experiment 1, immediately following each studied DRM list, participants were given a recognition test. The tests were constructed such that the number of studied items preceding the critical lure varied from zero to five. Neither false recognition for critical lures nor accurate memory for studied items was affected by this manipulation. In Experiment 2, we replicated this pattern of results under speeded conditions at test. Both experiments confirm that exposure to previously studied items at test does not affect true or false recognition in the DRM paradigm. This pattern strongly suggests that retrieval processes do not influence false recognition in the DRM paradigm.
在两项实验中，我们研究了在测试时重新接触先前学习过的项目是否会影响DRM范式中的错误识别。此外，我们还考察了在测试时接触关键诱饵是否会影响对随后呈现的学习项目的记忆。在实验1中，在每个学习过的DRM列表之后，立即对参与者进行识别测试。测试的构建方式是，关键诱饵之前的学习项目数量从零到五个不等。这种操作既不影响对关键诱饵的错误识别，也不影响对学习项目的准确记忆。在实验2中，我们在测试的加速条件下重复了这一结果模式。两项实验均证实，在测试时接触先前学习过的项目不会影响DRM范式中的真实或错误识别。这种模式强烈表明，检索过程不会影响DRM范式中的错误识别。
