Abstract
Investigate accuracy of recall and recognition memory styles and their effect on accuracy and confidence levels. ...
We hypothesized that we would find greater levels of confidence and accuracy in the recognition memory tests, but we would find a greater confidence accuracy-correlation in the recall memory tests. ...

Eyewitness Accuracy and Confidence
Research has suggested that when people are subjected to recall or recognition tests they are more accurate and confident in recognition (Robinson & Johnson, 1996). ... However those who took the recall memory test had a higher confidence accuracy-correlation. ... Recall memory tests would have a higher confidence-accuracy correlation. Where recognition memory tests would have higher confidence and accuracy. ...

Results
The results supported our hypothesizes. There were greater levels of confidence and accuracy in recognition memory tests and also there was a greater confidence-accuracy correlation in the recall memory tests.
