    "title": "The Influence of Language on Memory for Object Location",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "In this study, the influence of two types of language on memory\nfor object location was investigated: demonstratives (this, that)\nand possessives (my, your). Participants read instructions\n(containing this/that/my/your/the) to place objects at different\nlocations. They then had to recall those object locations.\nExperiments 1 and 2 tested the contrasting predictions of two\npossible accounts of language on memory: the expectation\nmodel (Coventry, Griffiths, & Hamilton, 2014) and the\ncongruence account (Bonfiglioli, Finocchiaro, Gesierich,\nRositani, & Vescovi, 2009). In Experiment 3, the role of\nattention as a possible mechanism was investigated. The results\nacross all three experiments show striking effects of language\non object location memory; objects in the “that” and “your”\ncondition were misremembered to be further away than objects\nin the “this” and “my” condition. The data favored the\nexpectation model: expected location cued by language and\nactual location are concatenated leading to (mis)memory for\nobject location.",
