                                    94Externalizing behaviors have been linked to neighborhood disadvantage and alterations in neural responses to reward. Yet, these factors have not been studied together, making it unclear how they jointly contribute to externalizing behaviors. We will use the ABCD dataset, which follows individuals from youth to adulthood, and contains 11,875 participants at baseline. We will evaluate the hypothesis that the effects of neighborhood disadvantage on externalizing behaviors are mediated by neural responses to reward.POSTER 7AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL MEMORY RETRIEVAL AS INTERVENTION TO INCREASE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY IN ADULTS 60+ZUZANNA SMURZYNSKA (FORDHAM UNIVERSITY), EMILY LEROLLAND (FORDHAM UNIVERSITY), KAREN SIEDLECKI (FORDHAM UNIVERSITY) This study examined whether recalling an autobiographical memory related to physical activity (PA) increases subsequent PA in older adults over the age of 60. Participants (N=492) were randomly assigned to control or experimental groups (in which participants retrieved a motivational autobiographical memory associated with exercise). One week later participants (N=339) completed a second survey assessing PA levels. Analyses indicate that there was no main effect of condition on PA levels at Time 2.POSTER 8BAD WORDS, BAD VIBES: THE EFFECT OF MOOD ON MEMORYLIAM PEREGOY (WASHINGTON COLLEGE), LOGAN KENNY (WASHINGTON COLLEGE), GRACE BROWN (WASHINGTON COLLEGE), LAUREN LITTLEFIELD (WASHINGTON COLLEGE) The impact of mood on memory was investigated by inducing frustration in college-aged participants with a stressful neuropsychological test. Recall and recognition memory were then tested with either negative or neutral word lists. First, results confirmedthe PASAT as a stressful neuropsychological test. Secondly, statistical trends suggested that stressed participants in the negative condition remembered more stimuli overall than stressed participants in the neutral condition. Implications for clinicians are discussed.POSTER 9CAN GRAPHICAL ANNOTATIONS ELIMINATE THE Y-AXIS TRUNCATION EFFECT?CHRISTINA REIFERT (SETON HALL UNIVERSITY), JOSHUA N. DIMAYUGA (SETON HALL UNIVERSITY), MICHAEL C. BARNARD (SETON HALL UNIVERSITY), ANNAPURA SAHA (SETON HALL UNIVERSITY), KELLY M. GOEDERT (SETON HALL UNIVERSITY) People perceive differences to be larger when viewing bar graphs whose y-axis starts above, rather than at, zero (truncation effect). Using a paradigm from Yang et al. (2021), we investigated whether warnings or numerical annotations would reduce the truncation effect. We tracked participants' eye movements while they viewed bar graphs with and without truncated axes. Participants rated the size of the differences in each graph. We expect reduced effects of truncation with numerical annotations.POSTER 10COGNITIVE BIASES ASSOCIATED WITH SPECIFIC AND GENERALIZED BELIEFS IN CONSPIRACY THEORYPETER FROST (SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE UNIVERSITY), ABBY ALEXAKOS (SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE UNIVERSITY), CAROLYN GOULDFAULKNER (SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE UNIVERSITY) We hypothesized that certain cognitive biases are associated with a tendency to believe in conspiracy theories. These biases were assessed using the Cognitive Bias Questionnaire for Psychosis (CBQp). The findings revealed that the cognitive biases of the CBQp, particularly anomalous perception, jumping to conclusions, intentionalizing, threatening event, and emotional reasoning, were correlated with generalized and more specific beliefs in conspiracies. The theoretical implications for conspiracy belief and subclinical delusional ideation are considered.POSTER 11COMPARING AUDIO AND VISUAL STIMULI WITH A DRM TASKKYLEE CRAIN (NEW YORK INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY), NICOLE CALMA-RODDIN (NEW YORK INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY) The Deese-Roediger-Mcdermott (DRM) test is common in false memory research, generally focusing on visually-presented stimuli. Little work, however, has tested auditory false memory. We expand the DRM to include a version with auditory stimuli. Further, we compare the results of DRM presentation using images, visually-presented words, and sounds. We predict that the sound stimuli will have the highest percentage of false memory, and the image stimuli will have the lowest percentage of false memory.94
