Word pair task. (A) During encoding, participants viewed 80 word pairs, each separated by a fixation cross. To ensure that participants actively encoded the words, they were told to imagine a scene that was associated with both words and to make a button press to indicate whether the scene they imagined was indoors or outdoors. (B) During the retrieval sessions, participants were presented with only the top word of each pair and required to type out the bottom word previously paired with it. Performance was assessed by computing the proportion of correct responses to the total responded to at either encoding run.
