A researcher investigated the effect of schemas on memory. Participants were shown a picture of an academic's office containing both schema-consistent objects (such as books and a desk) and schema-inconsistent objects (such as a toy brick and a tennis racket). Afterwards, participants were asked to write a detailed, free-recall description of everything they could remember seeing in the office.
