Dr. Vance conducted an experiment to investigate the influence of cognitive interference on working memory capacity. Participants were required to recall a sequence of 15 spatial locations displayed on a screen. They completed the task under two different conditions: a "No Distraction" condition and an "Auditory Distraction" condition (where they listened to random numbers being read aloud during the retention interval).
| Condition | Mean number of spatial locations recalled |
|---|---|
| No Distraction | 11 |
| Auditory Distraction | 6 |
Draw an appropriate graph to show the mean results of Dr. Vance's study.
