  The first part of this experiment is concerned with the way in which we memorize verbal descriptions of action.  In a few moments you will be shown a series of slides, each containing a description of a particular behavior.  Please read these sentences carefully, studying each one until the next slide appears on the screen.  Try to remember the exact wording of each single description as accurately as you can.  At the end of the session, we will ask you a series of questions pertaining to the information contained in these sentences.
