Short Description of your Research or Creative Project (700 characters or less)

This project investigated false memories via spreading activation and the influence of encoding specificity on explicit and implicit memory tests in incidental learning situations. An interaction for memory condition and font color was found; the implicit condition had more false memories for when in the incongruent font color condition, and the explicit condition had more false memories when in the congruent font color condition. Regarding memory accuracy, both the implicit and explicit conditions had more accurate memories when in the congruent font color condition. Overall, the explicit condition had more false memories and more accurate memories than the implicit condition.
