General idea

The main goal of this research will be to partially reproduce the design proposed by Newman & colleagues (2012; 2018; 2020) used to test the Truthiness effect which is testing how images influence perceptions of truth (cf Newman & Schwarz, 2024).

Introduction

Semantically related contexts produce easier conceptual processing relative to neutral contexts, an experience that people may interpret as evidence of familiarity. (Newman et al., 2015)
