On the Reliability of Explicit and Implicit Memory Measures Presentation on“On the Reliability of Implicit and Explicit Memory Measures” by Axel Buchner and Werner Wippich  - Leonard L?er - Philipp Schleenvoigt - Ulrich Sü? * * by Table of Contents PART I - INTRODUCTION Main statement of the article What is this reliability thing, anyway? The role of reliability of memory tests Reasons for reliability differences between memory measures PART II - THE EXPERIMENTS Experiment 1a Experiment 1b Experiment 2 Experiment 3 PART III - CONCLUSIONS ON THE RELIABILITY OF EXPLICIT AND IMPLICIT MEMORY MEASURES - TABLE OF CONTENTS PART I - INTRODUCTION MAIN STATEMENT OF THE ARTICLE former tests seemed to reveal functional dissociations between explicit and implicit memory: older subjects (amnesic / distracted) perform worse than younger (“normal” / undistracted) subjects in explicit memory tests, but nearly equal in implicit memory tests but: same results possible if the reliability of the explicit memory tests were better than that of the implicit ones! do our “found” dissociations only occur due to methodological reasons? ON THE RELIABILITY OF EXPLICIT AND IMPLICIT MEMORY MEASURES - INTRODUCTION WHAT IS THIS RELIABILITY THING, ANYWAY? in classical test theory we have: a true score of some feature we want to measure an observed score of that feature a measurement error the higher the error variance, the worse is the correlation between the true score and the observed score a test with a lower error variance is thus more reliable reliability is the strength of the relation between observed and true score ON THE RELIABILITY OF EXPLICIT AND IMPLICIT MEMORY MEASURES - INTRODUCTION THE ROLE OF RELIABILITY OF MEMORY TESTS testing groups that vary in their memory abilities, we should expect: to find larger differences in observed scores when using highly reliable tests to find lower differences in observed scores when using ba
