A graphical summary of the experiment design used in all four experiments. Top: In each study block, 25 objects were “hidden" inside a grid and the participant could only view a single object at a time through a moving window. Each participant completed six study blocks, alternating between self-directed and yoked study. During self-directed blocks the participant controlled the movement of the window. During yoked blocks the sequence of movements was identical to that of a previous participant. Bottom: During the test phase, the participant made a recognition decision for every item that was studied (as well as 150 new objects). If they responded “OLD", they were then given a spatial recall test in which they had to place the item onto the study grid based on their memory for where it appeared. If they could not recall its studied location, they could “opt-out" of the spatial response by clicking on the question mark to the side of the grid.
