90task after four delay periods with the maximum being 1042 days (over 2.5 years). On all testing sessions, having no intervening exposure to the stimuli, the task, or the apparatus, both subjects performed at near perfect levels, adding to the sparse data available on the long-term memory capabilities of marine mammals.4:15pm %u2013 4:25pmASSOCIATIONS BETWEEN MEMORY, MOOD, AND ANXIETY IN INDIVIDUALS WITH POSTCONCUSSION SYNDROMESHANNON O'LOUGHLIN (MILLERSVILLE UNIVERSITY), SHAUN COOK (MILLERSVILLE UNIVERSITY) This study evaluated the relationship between memory impairments associated with post-concussion syndrome (PCS) when anxiety and/or depressive symptoms are present. Memory, along with mood and anxiety were assessed in a patient with PCS and controls via a standardized assessment and self-report measures, respectively. Percentile rank and mean scores described the patient's performance on verbal and visual memory recall as poorer and accompanied by higher levels of anxiety and depression when compared to controls.4:30pm %u2013 4:40pmTHE TRIAL-SPACING EFFECT: THE ROLE OF INTERVAL CONTENT IN ENHANCING FREERECALLDENIS POGOSYAN (STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK AT BINGHAMTON), DAVE JIANG (STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK AT BINGHAMTON), RAFI ARNOB (STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK AT BINGHAMTON), JAMES E. WITNAUER (STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK BROCKPORT), ROBIN MURPHY (UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD), RALPH R. MILLER (STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK AT BINGHAMTON) Two experiments manipulated duration and content of intervals between learning trials towards influencing memory retention in list-learning tasks, contrasting four accounts of the trial-spacing effect. Experiment 1 replicated the frequently-reported observation that spaced repetition of words enhanced recall compared to massed repetition. Experiment 2 revealed that interjecting intertrial interval (ITI) content with nontarget stimuli further improves recall beyond spacing alone. These findings suggest that ITI content significantly influences retention, likely by impacting rehearsal.4:45pm %u2013 4:55pmEVALUATING SUSPECT GUILT BASED ON EYEWITNESS CONFIDENCE AND FACE RECOGNITION ABILITYROBERT LOCKAMYEIR (SUNY ONEONTA), CURT CARLSON (EAST TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY) Research has shown that a strong confidence-accuracy (CA) relationship exists for eyewitness identifications (e.g., Wixted & Wells, 2017). There are a few exceptions, one of which is face recognition ability (FRA; Grabman et al., 2019). We investigated howlaypeople assess eyewitness IDs based on confidence and FRA. Across three experiments, we found laypeople understand that FRA can affect eyewitness accuracy for choosers, but not rejectors. We attempted to improve juror's decision making using expert testimony.Friday, March 7, 20254:00pm %u2013 5:00pm Paper WilderCLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY PAPERS: EXPERIMENTAL STUDIESFriday, March 7, 20254:00pm %u2013 5:00pmCHAIR: WILLIAM J.

MUSYOKA (HARTWICK COLLEGE), OLIVIA ROTH (HARTWICK COLLEGE), ABIGAIL J. SCHWARTZ (HARTWICK COLLEGE), ABIGAIL M. WHITE (HARTWICK COLLEGE) College students drink problematically, which has been associated with stress and mood disturbances. Using daily diaries, we examined the impact of mood and stress during the day on drinking that night, and the impact of drinking on the following day's mood and stress. Contrary to the idea that students drink because they are stressed, students moderated their drinking when experiencing stress, indicating rational 90
