Revisiting Snodgrass and Vanderwart in Photograph Form: The Keele Photo Stimulus Set (KPSS) (2024)
Journal Article
Adams, J., Sherman, S., & Williams, H. L. (2024). Revisiting Snodgrass and Vanderwart in Photograph Form: The Keele Photo Stimulus Set (KPSS). Behavior Research Methods, https://doi.org/10.3758/s13428-024-02351-1

Over the last 40 years, object recognition studies have moved from using simple line-drawings, to more detailed illustrations, to more ecologically valid photographic representations. Researchers now have access to various stimuli sets, however, exis... Read More about Revisiting Snodgrass and Vanderwart in Photograph Form: The Keele Photo Stimulus Set (KPSS).

Recognition, remember-know, and confidence judgments: no evidence of cross-contamination here! (2023)
Journal Article
Williams, H. L., Bodner, G. E., & Lindsay, D. S. (2023). Recognition, remember-know, and confidence judgments: no evidence of cross-contamination here!. Memory, 31(7), 905-917. https://doi.org/10.1080/09658211.2023.2207804

We report three experiments designed to reveal the mechanisms that underlie subjective experiences of recognition by examining effects of how those experiences are measured. Prior research has explored the potential influences of collecting metacogni... Read More about Recognition, remember-know, and confidence judgments: no evidence of cross-contamination here!.

Artificial neural networks reveal individual differences in metacognitive monitoring of memory (2019)
Journal Article
Zakrzewski, A. C., Wisniewski, M. G., Williams, H. L., & Berry, J. M. (2019). Artificial neural networks reveal individual differences in metacognitive monitoring of memory. PloS one, 14(7), Article e0220526. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0220526

Previous work supports an age-specific impairment for recognition memory of pairs of words and other stimuli. The present study tested the generalization of an associative deficit across word, name, and nonword stimulus types in younger and older adu...

Independent Recollection-Familiarity Ratings: Similar Effects of Levels-of-Processing Whether Amount or Confidence is Rated (2019)
Journal Article
Williams, H., & Bodner, G. E. (2019). Independent Recollection-Familiarity Ratings: Similar Effects of Levels-of-Processing Whether Amount or Confidence is Rated. Canadian Journal of Experimental Psychology, 73(2), 94-99. https://doi.org/10.1037/cep0000161

Independent recollection-familiarity (RF) ratings are sometimes collected to measure subjective experiences of recollection and familiarity during recognition. Although the RF ratings task purports to measure the ‘degree’ to which each recognition st...

Different Definitions of the Non-recollection-based Response Option(s) Change how People use the “Remember” Response in the Remember/Know Paradigm (2019)
Journal Article
Williams, H., & Lindsay, D. S. (2019). Different Definitions of the Non-recollection-based Response Option(s) Change how People use the “Remember” Response in the Remember/Know Paradigm. Memory and Cognition, 47, 1359-1374. https://doi.org/10.3758/s13421-019-00938-0

In the Remember/Know paradigm, a Know response can be defined to participants as a high-confidence state of certainty or as a low-confidence state based on a feeling of familiarity. To examine the effects of definition on use of responses, in two exp...

Promoting writing amongst peers: establishing a community of writing practice for early career academics (2017)
Journal Article
Skipper, Y., Williams, H., Kent, A., Berry, D. M., & Budds, K. (2017). Promoting writing amongst peers: establishing a community of writing practice for early career academics. Higher Education Research and Development, 36(6), 1194-1207. https://doi.org/10.1080/07294360.2017.1300141

In the current research-focused climate, academics are facing increasing pressure to produce research outputs. This pressure can prove particularly daunting for early career (EC) academics, who are simultaneously attempting to master new teaching and...

Know versus Familiar: Differentiating states of awareness in others' subjective reports of recognition (2015)
Journal Article
Williams, H., & Moulin, C. J. (2015). Know versus Familiar: Differentiating states of awareness in others' subjective reports of recognition. Memory, 23(7), 981 -990. https://doi.org/10.1080/09658211.2014.945460

In the Remember-Know paradigm whether a Know response is defined as a high-confidence state of certainty or a low-confidence state based on familiarity varies across researchers and can influence participants' responses. The current experiment was de... Read More about Know versus Familiar: Differentiating states of awareness in others' subjective reports of recognition.

Perceptions of competence: Age moderates views of healthy aging and Alzheimer’s disease (2014)
Journal Article
Berry, J. M., Williams, H. L., Thomas, K. D., & Blair, J. (2014). Perceptions of competence: Age moderates views of healthy aging and Alzheimer’s disease. Experimental Aging Research, 41(2), 157-176. https://doi.org/10.1080/0361073X.2015.1001653

Background/Study Context: Older adults have more complex and differentiated views of aging than do younger adults, but less is known about age-related perceptions of Alzheimer’s disease. This study investigated age-related perceptions of competence o... Read More about Perceptions of competence: Age moderates views of healthy aging and Alzheimer’s disease.
