镜像效应是再认记忆中的一个很强的规律：如果存在A和B两个条件，A的再认准确率较高，那么A中的旧项目比B中的旧项目更好地被认作旧项目，并且A中的新项目比B中的新项目更好地被认作新项目。镜像效应可以用注意力/似然理论来解释，该理论还提出了几个新的、违反直觉的预测。一个是，任何影响识别的变量，如遗忘，都会改变对新刺激和旧刺激的反应。就潜在的分布而言，遗忘产生了同心，即新（噪声）和旧（信号）分布向中点的双边移动。从两个被迫选择实验的数据报告，支持预测的concentering和其他预测来自理论。有人认为，目前的记忆理论，这是强度理论，不能处理这些问题。
The mirror effect is a strong regularity in recognition memory: If there are two conditions, A and B, with A giving higher recognition accuracy, then old items in A are recognized as old better than old items in B, and also new items in A are recognized as new better than new items in B. The mirror effect is explained by attention/likelihood theory, which also makes several new, counterintuitive predictions. One is that any variable, such as forgetting, that affects recognition changes the responses to new as well as old stimuli. In terms of underlying distributions, forgetting produces concentering, the bilateral movement of distributions, both new (noise) and old (signal), toward a midpoint. Data from two forced-choice experiments are reported that support the prediction of concentering and other predictions drawn from the theory. It is argued that current theories of memory, which are strength theories, cannot handle these regularities.
