Visual distraction during word-list retrieval does not consistently disrupt memory.

There was no main effect of list position, F (1,36) = 0.096, MSE = 0.634, p = 0.76, partial η 2 = 0.003 but a main effect of distraction, F (1,36) = 6.11, MSE = 0.585, p = 0.018, partial η 2 = 0.15 and a numerical trend towards an interaction of distraction with list position, F (1,36) = 3.46, MSE = 0.38, p = 0.071, partial η 2 = 0.09, as illustrated in Figure 3 .
