Book excerpt: Collaborative inhibition occurs when a group performs worse on a recall task than a nominal group (Combined non-redundant individual scores), and part-set cuing inhibition occurs when recall is impaired by the presence of cues. Despite these phenomena having similar explanations (i.e., the retrieval strategy disruption hypothesis), they have yet to be studied together in the same experimental context. The present study consists of three experiments that explored the joint effects of collaboration (or not) and cuing (or not). The overall goal was to determine whether these two phenomena are independent from one another and whether existing explanations are sufficient. The data suggest that these phenomena are independent of one another and that each negative effect simply adds to the other. Part-set cuing facilitated memory recall in the order task and collaboration-inhibited performance, which supported our prediction.
