压抑者对情绪和非情绪自传体记忆的提取诱发遗忘

该实验考察了压抑应对方式,高焦虑和低焦虑三组被试对不同情绪性自传体记忆的提取诱发遗忘的差异。结果表明,与情绪性自传体记忆比较,被试能回忆出更多非情绪性自传体记忆;正性,负性和非情绪性自传体记忆均能得到显著的提取诱发遗忘,但是提取练习对正性和非情绪性事件的回忆率的促进弱于负性事件。压抑者的提取诱发遗忘效应要小于另外两组,且对于负性自传体记忆,压抑者没有产生提取诱发遗忘。

Retrieval-induced Forgetting of Emotional and Unemotional Autobiographical Memories in Repressors

This experiment explored the differences in retrieval-induced forgetting(RIF) of emotional and unemotional autobiographical memories among repressors,high anxious and low anxious participants.The results showed that the subjects recalled more unemotional autobiographical memories relative to emotional ones;positive,negative and unemotional memories all yielded significant RIF,whereas the facilitation in negative memories received from practice was larger than that in positive and unemotional ones.The effect of RIF in repressors was less than the control groups';moreover,repressors didn't gain significant RIF effects in negative autobiographical memories.
