DIMITRIOS-K. DONAVOS is an academic who published a paper in 2002 entitled Perceptual match effects in direct tests of memory: the role of contextual fan.. DIMITRIOS-K. DONAVOS published this work as part of a team: Reder, Lynne M.. Here is a description of this work: The aim of the present study was to determine whether physical attributes of a memory representation would affect explicit memory performance and, if so, what type of factors would affect the size of a perceptual match effect. Subjects studied words in different, uncommon fonts and were later asked whether the word had been studied earlier. Words could be re-presented in the original font, a font studied with another word, or a font not seen earlier. In two additional experiments, we varied the numbers of words studied in the same unusual font (1 vs. 12 words per font). Recognition memory for the words was better if the test and study fonts matched, and this effect was larger for fonts not shared with other words. Moreover, old judgments were most likely to be classified as remember responses when words were re-presented in the same font when it had no.
