几项研究表明,左脑推理和解释事件的能力比右脑强[6](Gazzaniga,M。美国,社会大脑。Basic Books,纽约,1985)。鉴于推理和解释是正常记忆功能的重要方面[1](Bartlett,F。C.的方法,记住:A Study in Experimental and Social Psychology,剑桥University Press,1932),人们会期望这种半球差异延伸到记忆处理。研究人员给两名裂脑受试者看了一系列代表一个共同场景的图片。他们对这些图片的记忆后来被测试了一个偏侧的是-否识别测试,其中干扰物图片与场景一致或不一致。左半球的表现低于机会一致的干扰图片,而右半球是以上的机会,这些图片和执行在同一水平的准确性,作为图片最初提出。这些结果表明,在左半球的识别性能是更强烈的影响,共同的行动比右半球的场景的期望,并提供证据表明,左半球优势的解释和推理效果的记忆性能。
Several studies suggest that the abilities to make inferences and interpret events are stronger in the left hemisphere than the right hemisphere [6] (Gazzaniga, M. S.,The Social Brain. Basic Books, New York, 1985). Given that inference and interpretation are important aspects of normal memory functioning [1] (Bartlett, F. C.,Remembering: A Study in Experimental and Social Psychology, Cambridge University Press, 1932), one would expect this hemispheric difference to extend to mnemonic processing. Two split brain subjects were shown a series of pictures representing a common scene. Their memory for these pictures was later tested with a lateralized Yes-No recognition test where the distractor pictures were either consistent or inconsistent with the scene. The left hemisphere performed below chance on consistent distractor pictures whereas the right hemisphere was above chance on these pictures and performed at the same level of accuracy as the pictures originally presented. These results suggest that recognition performance in the left hemisphere was more strongly influenced by the expectations for actions common to a scene than the right hemisphere and provide evidence that the left hemisphere superiority in interpretation and inference effect memory performance.
