Recall Coding Procedures and Inter-rater Reliability
Two researchers reviewed and coded each participant’s recall data to ensure inter-rater reliability. Each researcher separately reviewed the description of images that participants recalled. If the description matched one from the set of images that the participants viewed the previous week, the researcher noted the name of the image. If it did not match, the researcher noted this as well. Once both researchers finished coding the recall data in this way, a third researcher compiled both coded responses, checked for discrepancies, and noted these instances. The two coders together then reviewed the discrepancies and resolved them by coming to an agreement for the final coding. Inter-rater reliability was computed using Krippendorff’s alpha (Hayes & Krippendorff,
