Table 3.

Cumulative hit and false alarm (FA) rates for different strength criteria inferred from the fictional ‘new’ responses in table 1. (The top set of rows (labelled ‘RAW’) contains the raw frequencies and the bottom set of rows (labelled “new”) contains the same data normalized by the total number of targets (for hits) and lures (for FAs) for which a ‘new’ response was made.)
