(exp 1 conclusions) No, actual speed=20 mean speed=37.7 whereas actual speed=30 mean estimate=36.2 3 of 9 What reasons are there for the change of one word (form) to alter the pps answers to the questions? (in exp 1 conclusions) 1.) a pp's schema of each word affects the estimated speed if uncertain (response-bias) 2.) the verb changes the pps memory 4 of 9 In exp 2, what was the mean estimated speed for smashed and hit?
