Abstract

Effects of time stress and limitation of stimulus and response set size on the detection of suppressed involvement with information through the forced number-guessing technique, were investigated. Variations in load do not affect the overall detection efficiency, but the mechanisms through which 'guilty' Ss expose themselves are a function of the specific loading conditions applied. The results indicate that information suppression might be considered as an information processing paradigm.
