Episodic Memory Experiment

The purpose of this experiment is to present a test that helps experimenters determine if the participant either recollect the words presented in the experiment, or if the participant is just familiar with this words. The motivation for the participant to conduct this study is to identify the two brain structures that sub-function these structures. For instance, when a person is presented one of the words that are presented in this experiment, he or she would have to use the memory, in order to find what is being asked. Base on this exercise, when the same word is presented in phase two, the person would experience an episodic memory, in order to remember the word.
Methods:
Besides the computer and all the hardware, the items utilized in this experiment are a list of words, which the participant has to either provide a synonym or a word that rhymes with that word in the phase one of the experiment. The time allotted for the answering is five seconds. On the phase two of the experiment, the participant has to recognize if the word was on the previous list or not. The lures are provided in order to make sure the results are reliable, and the participant really did the experiment. The design of the study is a factorial design, which had two independent variables. The independent variables are the conditions, which are the words that I had to give a synonym, the words that the participant had to give a word that rhymes with them, and the lures. Describe what
These results are compared to high proportion of lures in the experimental results. These finding apply to real life situations in that people experience episodic memory when recalling an item. Furthermore, a follow up experiment is suggested to increase the accuracy measurements of each presented
