“…Dilevski et al (2022) did not find evidence for primacy and recency effects when asking participants which domestic violence scenario they remembered best, possibly because more than half of their participants selected one scenario that took place at a different location than other scenarios. Scenarios were presented randomly, so it is possible that the lack of serial position effects was at least partially due to the stimuli confoundif participants remembered the scenario because of the different location, this location distinctiveness may have driven participants' selection.…”

“…When remembering instances of a sequence of similar experiences (i.e., a repeated event), such as magic shows, stories describing days at a farm, or scenarios of domestic violence, people's memory for the first and final instances is typically superior to memory for the middle instances in measures of quantitative and qualitative accuracy, discriminability, rates of misattribution, and, in case of the first instance, also rates of retention (e.g., Connolly et al, 2016;Dilevski et al, 2021a;Dilevski et al, 2022;MacLean, et al, 2018;Powell & Thomson, 1997;Powell et al, 2003;Roberts et al, 2015;Rubínová & Kontogianni, 2023).…”

“…Dilevski et al (2021a) presented participants with correct and lure items and asked whether each item was seen in the designated scenario (true/false), and found recency effects for discriminability, although only in shorter delays (no delay and one week delay conditions). Dilevski et al (2022) presented participants with items from all scenarios and asked them to decide on the source scenario. In that study, the authors did not find significant differences across instances for correct attributions and source errors (potentially due to low statistical power), but the patterns of data were consistent with the primacy and recency effects.…”

In repeated-event paradigms, participants typically recall more accurate details from the first and final instances of a series of similar events (i.e., long-term primacy and recency effects). Encoding-level differences are assumed to contribute to these patterns; participants may encode distinct attributes of details of the boundary instances that subsequently facilitate source monitoring, although to date, there is no direct evidence of encoding-level mechanisms because repeated-event memory is typically assessed using free-recall paradigms that contaminate performance with retrieval-level processes. We focused on encoding-level mechanisms more directly by measuring reaction times in recognition tasks that either did or did not require source monitoring. We expected to observe faster hits in the task that did not require source attribution, and we also expected faster hits for the boundary instances. Participants viewed four videos, and after a 10–15-minute delay completed a recognition task. In Experiment 1 (N = 168, between-subjects), participants decided whether an item was old (i.e., presented in any video) or new, or whether an item was presented in video 1/2/3/4 or was new. In Experiment 2 (N = 160, within-subjects), the old/new decision was followed by an instance attribution decision. We found faster hits in the old/new task compared to the instance-attribution task. In the instance-attribution task, items from the boundary instances were accurately attributed faster compared to items from the middle instances. We found further support for the primacy and recency effects in measures of confidence, memory judgments, recognition accuracy and discriminability, and confidence-accuracy calibration.
