Sensitivity (\(d^{\prime }\)) and response bias (c) for mask memory (Question 2). Note. Error bars indicate standard errors. Each data point shows the sensitivity (\(d^{\prime }\); panel a) or response bias (c; panel b) of a participant indicating whether they saw a mask in the study phase, separately for cases in which they rated the faces as seen or not seen in the study phase and familiar (blue dots) or unfamiliar faces (gray dots). a Main effects of familiarity and rating on memory sensitivity for masks. Higher values of \(d^{\prime }\) indicate better performance. A value of zero indicates ‘guessing.’ b Main effects of familiarity and rating on memory bias for masks. Values greater than zero indicate a conservative bias (tendency to answer ‘no’), and values lower than zero indicate a liberal bias (tendency to answer ‘yes’)
