One of the Potential flaws of the experiment could be seen in an issue concerning carry over effect. This could be prominent due to the fact that some of our participants were involved in other recall tasks in the same hour tutorial. Meaning that their performance in another experiment straight before could affect their performance in this study. Another issue relating to the tutorial group is that all groups were looking at very similar recall tasks and we all go the choice from a selection of topics. Therefore, the fact the participants had prior knowledge of what the experiment was looking at could affect their performance in a way which is unconstructive to the experiment and results.

Sally, I and several others worked together on a major publication incorporating contributions from various sources. It was very hard work to pull together disparate ideas into a coherent easy-to-read whole. From the moment Sally became involved it started to take shape. She quickly acquainted herself with the subject matter and worked fast and effectively.

Sally was a pleasure to work with and supportive to us all. I would love to work with her again.
