在这项研究中，我们检验了高度情绪化的事件是否与中心和外围细节的记忆持久性有关，正如其他文献所声称的那样（例如，Yuille & Cutshall, 1989）。在两个实验中，共有437名受试者被要求报告他们“最痛苦的记忆”，并回答有关他们选择的记忆的问题。一个重要的发现是情绪等级和中心细节的数量之间有显著的关系，而不是外围细节，被试认为他们记住了。讨论了这一结果对情绪记忆研究的启示。
In this study, we examined whether highly emotional events are associated with persistence of memory for both central and peripheral detail, as has been claimed elsewhere in the literature (e.g., Yuille & Cutshall, 1989). A total of 437 subjects in two experiments were asked to report their “most traumatic memory” and to answer questions about their chosen memory. A major finding was a significant relationship between rated degree of emotion and the number of central details, but not peripheral details, the subjects believed that they remembered. The implication of this result for the study of emotional memory is discussed.
