Design of Experiments 1 and 2. In both experiments, a perceptual matching‐to‐sample procedure was used at encoding. At retrieval, participants completed two tasks emphasizing either novelty (NT condition) or familiarity (FT condition) detection. In Experiment 1, familiarity and novelty decisions were taken using a rating scale while in Experiment 2, a simpler yes/no decision was used. Eye tracking data were recorded in both experiments during the FT and NT conditions.
