两项实验检验了预测试对目标识别和源记忆的影响。在初始编码阶段，参与者尝试学习罕见英语单词的常见英语定义。对于每个稀有单词，参与者要么在稀有英语单词被揭示之前猜测其定义（预测试条件），要么只是研究完整的单词对而不首先猜测定义（只读条件）。为了操纵源信息，目标以不同的颜色（实验 1）或列表（实验 2）呈现。在这两个实验中，参与者从预测试试验中正确识别的目标比只读试验中的多，但在源记忆中没有显示出差异。因此，预测试似乎可以提高目标识别记忆，但不能提高上下文信息的记忆。结合预测试效果的语义和情景理论对结果进行了讨论。
Two experiments examined the effect of pretesting on target recognition and source memory. In an initial encoding phase, participants attempted to learn the common English definitions of rare English words. For each rare word, the participants either guessed the definition of the rare English word before it was revealed (Pretest condition) or just studied the complete word pair without first guessing the definition (Read-only condition). To manipulate source information, the targets were either presented in different colours (Experiment 1) or lists (Experiment 2). In both experiments, the participants correctly recognised more targets from Pretest trials than Read-only trials, but showed no difference in source memory. Pretesting, therefore, appears to improve target recognition memory, but not memory for contextual information. The results are discussed in relation to semantic and episodic theories of the pretesting effect.
