Abstract

Historically, memory studies have focused more on the accuracy of memory reports than the decision processes responsible for translating memory evidence into overt judgments of remembering. Indeed, these decision processes have often been treated as nuisance variables whose influence must be removed so that the accuracy of different observers or experimental conditions can be reliably compared. Recently however, there has been a renewed interest in the mechanisms that support decision-making in memory and the degree to which these mechanisms are flexible, adaptive, and separable. This review examines various characteristics of criterion (role of criterion, variables that influence criterion setting, flexibility or shift of criterion, multiple decision criteria) and recognition memory models in terms of this decision process.
