There are two tasks in this experiment - clicking on flashing blocks, and reading sentences one word at a time. It sounds simple but it can get a bit tricky! I'm interested in how language is represented in the brain, and what expectations we have about what is coming next... Limited to native speakers of English only, using Internet Explorer. Hope you can help!
20 mins. Native English speakers only.

Investigating eyewitness memory for crimes ::

Marita Kenrick & David Mallard
Charles Sturt University Australia

The aim of the study is to improve our understanding of how reliable eyewitness memory is, and about the factors that might make eyewitnesses more or less likely to be accurate in their memory for a crime. The experiment is divided into two parts, with the second half taking place after a 1-week interval. In part one participants view a slide sequence depicting a staged crime. Part two takes place one week later; in this part of the experiment participants are asked to make decisions concerning the staged crime viewed.
