Hi, Steve, I ran several experiments using the water jugs problem. Essentially, people are shown three jugs, each of a different size. They are told how much each jug can hold (for example, 8 liters, 5 liters, and 3 liters). Then they're told what their goal is (for example, to get 2 in the first jug, 5 in the middle jug, and 1 in the last jug). Moves are made by pouring from one jug to another, stopping when you fill a jug or run out of water in the jug you're pouring from.
We forced participants to plan ahead and only enter their moves when they actually knew the solution. To make it even more fun, we interrupted them following the planning period but BEFORE they entered their moves. We made them do something else for a while, and then said, "So what was that plan again?"
There were several other experiments aimed at showing storage in long-term memory, but that was the most critical one.
