dc.description.abstractThis research proposal investigates the effect of the presence of a familiar voice on memory in the context of a dichotic listening test. In this proposed study, 10 undergraduate students attending The University of Tampa will be instructed to recall phrases spoken by either an arbitrary speaker or a familiar celebrity. The number of words recalled between conditions will be compared using a paired-samples t-test. If the results support my hypothesis, the t-test will show a significant difference between the means of each condition. This will provide evidence towards the claim that an increased familiarity of voice may lead to higher auditory memory recall. If the results do not support my hypothesis, the t-test will not show a significant difference between words recalled in either condition. Overall, the study will provide more insight on the relationship between celebrity voice familiarity and performance on a recall task in young adults.
