From: Memory precision and age differentially predict the use of decision-making strategies across the lifespan

Figure 5

Experiment 2: two kinds of reminded context influence choices. (A) Specific and gist context memory compete for influence on choice. Boxplots of logistic regression beta estimates measuring the contributions of reinforcement learning (recent reward history) and memory content (specific item memory, evoked target context memory, and evoked lure context memory) on subsequent choices following memory probes in Phase 2. Target and Lure contexts compete for variance in this analysis, reducing the effect of context observed in Fig. 3 (blue). (B) Memory precision tracks the influence of specific and Lure context memory. Across subjects, individual estimates of memory precision (LDI) predict a greater influence of memory intrusions for the target reminded context relative to its same-category lure (\({r}_{\tau }(95)=.148, p=.0329\)).
