Reality monitoring task design. (A) During the encoding phase, participants were given sentences in which the final word was either left blank for participants to generate themselves (e.g., the stove provided the __) or was externally-derived as it was provided by the experimenter (e.g., The sailor sailed the sea). (B) During the retrieval phase, participants were randomly presented with the noun pairs from the sentences (e.g., stove-heat), and had to identify with a button-press whether the second word was previously self-generated or externally-derived.
