揭示效应描述了当一个识别判断之前有一个附带的任务时，人们会更倾向于称物品为“旧的”。过去的研究结果表明，d'识别减少启示后，证据表明，启示效应是由于熟悉的变化。然而，从3个实验的接收器工作特性曲线的数据没有证据表明识别灵敏度的变化。作者举例说明了当熟悉度分布方差不相等时，使用像d'这样的单点测量可能会产生误导。还调查了这种效果是否取决于所使用的启示材料。无论是启示项目的记忆性，它们与识别探针的相似性，还是任务的难度，都没有改变效果的大小。因此，启示效应不是记忆提取机制的结果，似乎是通用的和全有或全无的。这些特征与反应偏差一致，而不是熟悉度变化。
The revelation effect describes the increased tendency to call items "old" when a recognition judgment is preceded by an incidental task. Past findings show that d' for recognition decreases following revelation, evidence that the revelation effect is due to familiarity change. However, data from receiver operating characteristic curves from 3 experiments produced no evidence of changes in recognition sensitivity. The authors illustrate how the use of a single-point measure like d' can be misleading when familiarity distribution variances are unequal. Also investigated was whether the effect depends on the revelation materials used. Neither the memorability of the revelation items, their similarity to recognition probes, nor the difficulty of the task changed the size of the effect. Thus, the revelation effect is not the result of a memory retrieval mechanism and seems to be generic and all-or-nothing. These characteristics are consistent with response bias rather than familiarity change.
