Abstract
Results replicating those of Suboski, Pappas, & Murray (1966b) on the use of confidence ratings in the RTT paradigm are presented. In addition, ROC curve analyses show that Ss’ ability to discriminate between correct and incorrect responses is a function of prior confidence and correctness.
