Validating the unequal-variance assumption in recognition memory using response time distributions instead of ROC functions: A diffusion model analysis

JJ Starns, R Ratcliff - Journal of memory and language, 2014 - Elsevier
Recognition memory z-transformed Receiver Operating Characteristic (zROC) functions
have a slope less than 1. One way to accommodate this finding is to assume that memory …

Evaluating the unequal-variance and dual-process explanations of zROC slopes with response time data and the diffusion model

JJ Starns, R Ratcliff, G McKoon - Cognitive psychology, 2012 - Elsevier
We tested two explanations for why the slope of the z-transformed receiver operating
characteristic (zROC) is less than 1 in recognition memory: the unequal-variance account …

Diffusion vs. linear ballistic accumulation: Different models, different conclusions about the slope of the zROC in recognition memory

AF Osth, B Bora, S Dennis, A Heathcote - Journal of Memory and Language, 2017 - Elsevier
The relative amount of variability in memory strength for targets vs. lures in recognition
memory is commonly measured using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) …

Beyond ROC curvature: Strength effects and response time data support continuous-evidence models of recognition memory

C Dube, JJ Starns, CM Rotello, R Ratcliff - Journal of Memory and language, 2012 - Elsevier
A classic question in the recognition memory literature is whether retrieval is best described
as a continuous-evidence process consistent with signal detection theory (SDT), or a …

Three tests and three corrections: comment on Koen and Yonelinas (2010).

Y Jang, L Mickes, JT Wixted - 2012 - psycnet.apa.org
The slope of the z-transformed receiver-operating characteristic (zROC) in recognition
memory experiments is usually less than 1, which has long been interpreted to mean that …

Recognition memory zROC slopes for items with correct versus incorrect source decisions discriminate the dual process and unequal variance signal detection …

JJ Starns, CM Rotello, MJ Hautus - Journal of Experimental …, 2014 - psycnet.apa.org
We tested the dual process and unequal variance signal detection models by jointly
modeling recognition and source confidence ratings. The 2 approaches make unique …

Problematic effects of aggregation in z ROC analysis and a hierarchical modeling solution

RD Morey, MS Pratte, JN Rouder - Journal of Mathematical Psychology, 2008 - Elsevier
The confidence-rating recognition memory paradigm has been used extensively for testing
theories of memory. Current methods for analyzing confidence-rating data require that data …

Exploring the shape of signal-detection distributions in individual recognition ROC data

S Malejka, A Bröder - Journal of Memory and Language, 2019 - Elsevier
The question of whether recognition performance should be analyzed assuming continuous
memory strength or discrete memory states has been bothering researchers for decades …

[HTML][HTML] Using response time modeling to distinguish memory and decision processes in recognition and source tasks

JJ Starns - Memory & cognition, 2014 - Springer
Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) functions are often used to make inferences about
memory processes, such as claiming that memory strength is more variable for studied …

Using ROC curves to test models of recognition memory: The relationship between presentation duration and slope

E Hirshman, M Hostetter - Memory & Cognition, 2000 - Springer
Many theories of memory predict that the slope of the z-transformed receiver-operating
characteristic (ROC) curve should decrease with increases in the memory strength of old …
