Memory for gist-only information was more likely to be remembered when items had been presented directly to the RVF/LH than when they had been presented directly to the LVF/RH. Regardless of whether items were presented directly to the LVF/RH or RVF/LH, the low d' values for negative and neutral items suggest that participants rarely remembered the gist of those items without their specific visual details. By contrast, this type of gist-only recognition occurred more reliably for the positive items.
