自我的一个重要功能是识别可能与个人相关的外部对象。我们认为，这类物品可以仅仅通过所有权来确定。现有的研究表明，在自我相关的背景下编码信息可以增强记忆（所谓的“自我参照效应”），因此设计了一个实验来测试所有权对记忆表现的影响。参与者将图片卡移动或观察移动到两个篮子中;其中一个属于自己，另一个属于另一个参与者。随后的识别测试显示，对于自己拥有的物体，有一个显着的记忆优势。作用于项目（即，移动它们）对记忆没有影响。结果进行了讨论，参考的重要性，自我客体协会的认知。(C)2007年爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
An important function of the self is to identify external objects that are potentially personally relevant. We suggest that such objects may be identified through mere ownership. Extant research suggests that encoding information in a self-relevant context enhances memory (the so-called 'self-reference effect'), thus an experiment was designed to test the impact of ownership on memory performance. Participants either moved or observed the movement of picture cards into two baskets; one of which belonged to self and one which belonged to another participant. A subsequent recognition test revealed that there was a significant memory advantage for objects that were owned by self. Acting on items (i.e., moving them) had no impact on memory. Results are discussed with reference to the importance of self-object associations in cognition. (C) 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
