Craik and Tulving 1975) designed a study to examine methods of processing words on memory. In the first part of the experiment, they asked a question regarding the visual processing, acoustic processing, or semantic processing of the word before the subject was presented with the word. Each subject in their study experienced all three types of questions. In the second part of the study, the researchers asked people to recognize the words that had been presented from a list containing the original words and many distractor words. What is the best description of the design of Craik and Tuliving's experiment?
A) pre-test, post-test
B) multiple conditions, between subjects
C) single condition, between subjects
D) multiple-conditions, within subjects

Question

The experiment involved multiple conditions (visual, acoustic, semantic processing) and each participant experienced all three, with the recognition of words serving as the dependent variable. This makes it a multiple-conditions, within subjects design.
