Experimental blocks 2 and 3 and performance across blocks. (A) Block 2 (probes excluded): The overall average context D2 score (M = 0.09, SD = 0.17) and the average recency D2 score (M = 0.02, SD = 0.25) did not differ from zero (t₍₇₎ = 1.47, p = 0.18, d = 0.52; t₍₇₎ = 0.24, p = 0.82, d = 0.09; respectively). There was no side bias present (M = 0.09, SD = 0.24; t₍₇₎ = 1.01, p = 0.35, d = 0.36). (B) Angular histogram before probe angles (red), after probe angles (blue) for block 2; 20 bins of 18°. Both the before probe trial (M = − 0.2°, SD = 64.8°, n = 6) and the after probe trial angles (M = 159.0°, SD = 74.7°, n = 5) were uniformly distributed around the circle (Rayleigh test: Z = 1.67, p = 0.19; Z = 0.92, p = 0.42; respectively). (C) Block 3 (probes excluded): The average context D2 score (M = 0.04, SD = 0.20) did not differ from zero (t₍₇₎ = 0.59, p = 0.57, d = 0.21), nor did the recency D2 score (M = 0.01, SD = 0.11; t₍₇₎ = 0.38, p = 0.72, d = 0.13). Additionally, there was no side bias (M = 0.03, SD = 0.12; t₍₇₎ = 0.60, p = 0.57, d = 0.21). (D) Average before probe context D2 scores, after probe context D2 scores, before probe recency D2 and after probe recency D2 scores across experimental blocks 1 to 3. Error bars denote ± SEM.
