COGNITIVE Loftus and Palmer (1974) Eyewittness | Aim: To investigate how information supplied after an event, influences a witness's memory for that event. |
PP's: EX1. 45 uni students split into 5 groups. EX2. 150 uni students split into 3 groups. | All pp's were shown clips of car crashes. Each group was either given different words in a sentence or not asked a question at all. |
Method: both studies were lab experiments using independent measure design. The possible words were smashed, collied, contacted, bumped + hit. | EX1. After watching the clips each group was asked "how fast was the car going when it ? the car?" |
EX2. 2/3 group were asked with the words smashed and hit. The other group was not asked a question at all. | A week after the experiment, the third group were asked to complete a questionnaire which had the question "Was there any broken glass?" |
Results EX1: 'Smashed' produced the fastest speed estimate and 'contacted' the slowest. |

EX2: Again 'smashed' was highest. More pp's in the 'smashed' group recalled seeing broken than both the 'hit' and control group. |
