    "abstract": "Much of our knowledge is transmitted socially rather thanthrough firsthand experience. Even our memories depend onrecollections of those around us. Surprisingly, when people re-call memories with others, they do not reach the potential num-ber of items they could have recalled alone. This phenomenonis called collaborative inhibition. Recently, Luhmann and Ra-jaram (2015) analyzed the dynamics of collaborative inhibitionat scale with an agent-based model, extrapolating from previ-ous small-scale laboratory experiments. We tested their modelagainst human data collected in a large-scale experiment andfound that participants demonstrate non-monotonicities not ev-ident in these predictions. We next analyzed memory transmis-sion beyond directly interacting agents by placing agents intonetworks. Contrary to model predictions, we observed highsimilarity only within directly interacting pairs. By comparingbehavior to model predictions in large-scale experiments, wereveal unexpected results that motivate future work in eluci-dating the algorithms underlying collaborative memory.",
