对记忆一致性的研究表明,协作记忆——通常以讨论的形式——可以影响人们的记忆。剩下的一个问题是,与谁讨论我们的记忆是否重要。为了回答这个问题,我们比较了人们在与恋人或陌生人讨论一件事后对这件事的记忆。一对对的受试者观看一部电影的不同版本,然后讨论电影中的一些细节,而不是其他细节。实验对象更善于记住没有讨论过的细节,而不是讨论过的细节:在记住讨论过的细节时,他们错误地报告了同伴的信息,而不是自己的。此外,与恋人(而不是陌生人)讨论事件的受试者更有可能报告错误记忆。我们讨论了我们的发现与其他关于记忆一致性、错误记忆的社会影响和浪漫关系中的记忆系统的研究有关。
Research on memory conformity shows that collaborative remembering - typically in the form of discussion - can influence people's memories. One question that remains is whether it matters with whom we discuss our memories. To address this question we compared people's memories for an event after they discussed that event with either their romantic partner or a stranger. Pairs of subjects watched slightly different versions of a movie, and then discussed some details from the movie, but not others. Subjects were better at remembering non-discussed details than discussed details: when remembering discussed details they incorrectly reported information from their partner's version instead of their own. In addition, subjects who discussed the event with their romantic partner (rather than with a stranger) were even more likely to report false memories. We discuss our findings in relation to other research on memory conformity, social influences on false memories, and memory systems within romantic relationships.
