使用四种测试记忆的方法评估了三种失忆症患者和对照组受试者的表现:免费召回,识别,提示召回和单词完成。在免费召回,识别和提示召回中,健忘症患者受到损害,但他们的单词结束是正常的。此外,大约120分钟后,单词完成测试的性能以正常速率达到机会下降。单词完成测试类似于提示回顾测试,因为先前呈现的单词的初始字母作为提示。它与仅在说明中的提示回忆不同,该说明将受试者从测试的记忆方面远离,并要求他们完成每个三个字母的提示,并使用第一个单词来完成。目前的结果提供了对失忆症患者在提示核心类型的测试中获得的相互冲突发现的解释。结果是根据过程(激活或程序学习)来考虑的,该过程在失忆症中幸免,而不取决于受损的大脑区域的完整性。
The performance of three kinds of amnesic patients and control subjects was assessed using four methods for testing memory: free recall, recognition, cued recall, and word completion. Whereas amnesic patients were impaired on free recall, recognition, and cued recall, they were normal on word completion. Moreover, performance on the word-completion test declined at a normal rate reaching chance after about 120 min. The word-completion test resembled the cued-recall test in that the initial letters of previously presented words were given as cues. It differed from cued recall only in the instructions, which directed subjects away from the memory aspects of the test and asked them to complete each three-letter cue with the first word that came to mind. The present results offer an explanation of conflicting findings that have been obtained with amnesic patients on tests of the cued-recall type. The results are considered in terms of a process (activation or procedural learning), which is spared in amnesia and not dependent on the integrity of the damaged brain regions.
