(a) Schematic illustration of the procedure for Experiments 1 and 2. The procedure of Session 1 is the same for Experiments 1 and 2 (with the exception of the number of trials). Participants …
(a) Error measurements. (b) Change in error by group and memory type (the band indicates the median, the box indicates the first and third quartiles, the whiskers indicate ± 1.5 × interquartile …
Experiment 1 error change over time.
* indicates p < 0.05, **** indicates p < 0.0001, and ns indicates p > 0.05 by t-tests between groups and ANOVA (top left). Red dashed lines indicate chance performance for item (defined as the …
Experiment 1 Session 1 error.
Experiment 1 Session 2 error.
Item-only simulation assumed that the magnitude of error for each item memory would remain the same but the direction of error would not be systematically influenced by the gist. [We generated 1000 …
Experiment 1 error change in reported gist, estimated gist, and simulated estimated gist from an item-only simulation.
(a) Bias measurement. The bias for each recalled location is (red - yellow) / green. The blue square is an example of a recalled item that is biased away from the reported center and the blue …
Experiment 1 bias at each session.
Greater values indicate an increase in error from Session 1 after delay. **** p <0.0001 by Wilcoxon signed rank tests. Dots and lines indicate participants. Figure 4—figure supplement 1 shows the …
Experiment 2 error change over time.
Red dashed lines indicate chance performance for item (defined as the average of distance between encoded item locations and center of the screen) and gist memory (defined as the distance between …
(a) Global observed bias (Obs), item-only simulated bias (Sim-I), and gist simulated bias (Sim-G) at each session. Global bias uses the report center. (b) Local observed bias (Obs), item-only …
Global bias at each session.
Local bias at each session.
The band indicates the median, the box indicates the first and third quartiles, the whiskers indicate ± 1.5 × interquartile range. Dots and lines indicate participants.
Outlier weight at each session.
(a) An example of the probability of simulated locations to be generated for an encoded location given the same extent of error in gist simulation. (b) Items with large errors are more likely to …
The relation between simulated error and bias.
