Note: Mean and SEM for Hit Rates (HR) and False-Alarm rates for both experiments and age groups are shown. Under the ‘All Responses’ column both high confidence and low confidence ‘Old’ responses (sure and guess responses) are shown. Under the ‘Sure Responses’ column only high confidence responses are included.
