Reality Monitoring Task Design. (A) During encoding, participants were given sentences in which the final word was either left blank for participants to generate themselves (e.g., The stove provided the __) or was externally-derived as it was provided by the experimenter (e.g., The sailor sailed the sea). (B) During retrieval, participants were randomly presented with the noun pairs from the sentences (e.g., stove-heat), and had to identify with a button-press whether the second word was previously self-generated or externally-derived.
