In a reply to R. Ratcliff and G. McKoon's (1995a) article on bias in the object decision task, D. L. Schacter and L. A. Cooper (1995) critiqued their theoretical arguments and presented an updated view of priming in the object decision task. In the present article, the updated view is examined in detail, and it is questioned whether Schacter and Cooper's explanation of the data is sufficiently articulated to be falsifiable. It is also argued in the present article that evidence from other research domains is not directly supportive of the memory systems hypothesis and that the statistical power available in data from object decision experiments is not great enough to test some relevant hypotheses. Finally, the bias hypothesis (Ratcliff & McKoon, 1995a) is elaborated to show that it requires a particular pattern of experimental results and that it serves as a target phenomenon for modeling.
在对R. 拉特克利夫和G. 麦库恩（1995a）关于客体决策任务中偏差的文章的回应中，D. L. 沙克特和L. A. 库珀（1995）批评了他们的理论观点，并提出了客体决策任务中启动效应的更新观点。在本文中，对这一更新观点进行了详细审视，并质疑沙克特和库珀对数据的解释是否足够清晰明确以便能够被证伪。本文还认为，来自其他研究领域的证据并不直接支持记忆系统假说，并且客体决策实验数据中的统计效力不足以检验一些相关假说。最后，阐述了偏差假说（拉特克利夫和麦库恩，1995a），以表明它需要特定的实验结果模式，并且它是建模的目标现象。
