作者测试了快乐情绪是否增加，悲伤情绪是否减少，依赖于一般知识结构。快乐、中性或悲伤情绪的参与者听一个“外出吃饭”的故事。快乐的参与者比悲伤的参与者在识别中犯了更多的入侵错误，中性情绪的参与者介于两者之间（实验1和2）。当快乐的参与者在听故事的同时执行次要任务时（实验2），快乐的参与者表现优于悲伤的参与者，但只有当脚本不一致的信息量很小时（实验3）。这种模式的研究结果表明，更高的依赖于一般知识结构下快乐，而不是悲伤的情绪。这与快乐情绪降低认知能力或一般加工动机的假设是不一致的，这将预测受损的次要任务表现。
The authors tested whether happy moods increase, and sad moods decrease, reliance on general knowledge structures. Participants in happy, neutral, or sad moods listened to a "going-out-for-dinner" story. Happy participants made more intrusion errors in recognition than did sad participants, with neutral mood participants falling in between (Experiments 1 and 2). Happy participants outperformed sad ones when they performed a secondary task while listening to the story (Experiment 2), but only when the amount of script-inconsistent information was small (Experiment 3). This pattern of findings indicates higher reliance on general knowledge structures under happy rather than sad moods. It is incompatible with the assumption that happy moods decrease either cognitive capacity or processing motivation in general, which would predict impaired secondary-task performance.
