Editorial note

  • Participants study episodes or scripts presented as a series of photographs. Each series ends in a negative, positive, or emotionally neutral way. However, the scene representing the cause of the outcome of each story is not presented. Subjects then participate in a recognition test in which they are asked to recognize the studied photographs among distracting photographs, including those representing the causal scenes, as well as new photographs consistent with the various scripts.
