Contrast Weights for the Orthogonal Planned Comparisons Involving Item Type

	Contrast
Item Type	1	2	3	4
Old	1	0	0	0
Consistent Conjunction	−1/4	1/3	1/2	1
Inconsistent Conjunction	−1/4	1/3	1/2	−1
Baseline Conjunction	−1/4	1/3	−1	0
New	−1/4	−1	0	0

Notes. The first comparison examined discrimination of Old items from recognition foils, contrasting correct “yes” responses to Old items with incorrect “yes” responses to the other item types. The second comparison examined the effects of the familiarity of the actor and action on false recognition of foils, contrasting “yes” responses to New items (in which the actor and action were unfamiliar) with “yes” responses to the three types of Conjunction items (in which the actor and action were familiar). The third comparison examined the effects of mugshot presentation on false recognition of Conjunction items, contrasting “yes” responses to Baseline Conjunction items with “yes” responses to Consistent Conjunction and Inconsistent Conjunction items. Finally, the fourth comparison examined whether mugshot presentation resulted in the creation of a specific association between the pictured actor and the action in question, contrasting “yes” responses to Consistent Conjunction items with “yes” responses to Inconsistent Conjunction items.
