Document Summary
Explicit and implicit memory are not different memory systems. Explicit and implicit memory tasks involve different memory retrieval processes: recollection and familiarity, respectively. Remember vs know procedure (gardiner & java, 1990) Yes responses in recognition = recollection + familiarity ( know") + guessing. Ask participants to report on their subjective memory state for words they recognised (ex: konstantinou & gardiner, Memory for faces encoded in shallow or deep conditions. Remember" responses sensitive to level of processing, attention at encoding etc but know responses are not. The recollection process is sensitive to the depth of processing. Wheeler & buckner (2004): neuroimaging of remember vs know judgements. Two areas more active for old than new items. Strongest activation in parietal areas common to both remember and know responses. Subset of temporal cortex specific to recollection. Stronger activation in both posterior parietal and frontal areas for remember than know; no areas that specifically respond to know.
