激活水平和呈现方式对错误记忆的影响

随机抽取80名大学生参与实验,采用DRM(Deese-Roediger-Mcdermott)范式,探讨了激活水平和呈现方式对错误记忆的影响。结果发现:(1)在随机呈现条件下,关键诱饵的错误再认率显著低于分组呈现条件,但学过项目的正确再认率在两种条件下无差异。(2)在高激活水平条件下,学过项目的正确再认率明显低于低激活水平条件,但关键诱饵的错误再认率在两种激活条件下的差异不够明显。这表明,呈现方式对关键诱饵的错误再认率有显著影响,而激活水平的影响则不显著。由此可知,人们的记忆可以在没有任何外界信息干扰的情况下因内在联想过程而自发地发生改变。

The Influence of Activation Level and Presentation Way on the False Memory

Drawing 80 students from Hanshan Normal University at random,this research adopted DRM(Deese-Roediger-Mcdermott)paradigm to study the effect of activation level and presentation way on false memory.The results were found as followings:(1)The false recognition rate of the key bait under the condition of random presentation was apparently lower than that under the condition of grouping presentation,but the correct recognition rates of learned items under two conditions were the same.(2)The correct recognition rate of learned items at a high activation level was significantly lower than that at a low level,but there were no difference between the false recognition rates of the key bait under two activation levels.These consequences suggested that presentation way had a significant impact on the false recognition rate of the key bait,but the influence of the activation level was not significant.Accordingly,humans’ memory would also change spontaneously because of the process of intrinsic association without any interference from extraneous information.
