Q

what did baddeley do

A

show participants a list of words either acoustically/semantically un/similar , made them recall either immediately or after a delay - immediate more mistakes on acoustic but delayed more mistakes on semantic

mundane realism

witness asked to recall all details even if it seems trivial

54
Q

what is context reinstatement

A

witness asked to place themselves at scene of crime and imagine the environment and their emotions

55
Q

what is recall in reverse

A

witness asked to report events in different chronological order

56
Q

what is recall from changed perspective

A

witness asked to recall from someone else’s perspective

might trigger a memory

58
Q

how does context reinstatement help

cues trigger memories

prevents schema

koknken- met analysis of 55 cog/standard interviews = cognitive showed 41% increase in accurate info

62
Q

however what did koknken state

A

more inaccurate info is recalled
