Objectives: a.) To investigate the impact of expectation and repetition on memory performance.
Results:
Discussion:
The outcome of the experiment shows that expectations and repetition influences
memory performance, retrieval, and process. It is obeserved from the series of Trials 1 to 5. On
the trial 1, expected figure of letters is 0, figures of achievement is 10, and figures of errors is 0.
Trial 2, expected is raised to 10, achievement is 20 (encompasses expectation), and errors is 0.
Trial 3, expected figure is 15 while the achievement turns out 21 (greater than expectation),
while errors is 0. Trial 4, expected figure of letters is 20, however the achievement figure is 26
(complete alphabet letters), and 0 errors. Trial 5, the expected figure is 26 and it equal to the
achievement figure which results to 26, still 0 errors.
