当信息从记忆中被检索出来时,它变得比其他情况下更容易回忆起来。然而,与相同线索或线索配置相关的其他信息变得不那么容易回忆起来。这种由提取引起的遗忘(Anderson,Bjork,&Bjork,1994)似乎反映了对竞争性非目标信息的抑制,这种抑制促进了对目标信息的选择。但是,在这种选择上的成功是提取诱发遗忘的必要条件吗?我们使用了一个程序,在这个程序中,一些线索给参与者带来了不可能的提取任务,我们报告了这样的证据:尝试提取,即使不成功,也会产生提取诱导的遗忘。我们认为,这一发现支持并完善了提取诱发遗忘的抑制/抑制解释。
When information is retrieved from memory, it becomes more recallable than it would have been otherwise. Other information associated with the same cue or configuration of cues, however, becomes less recallable. Such retrieval-induced forgetting (Anderson, Bjork, & Bjork, 1994) appears to reflect the suppression of competing nontarget information, with this suppression facilitating the selection of target information. But is success at such selection a necessary condition for retrieval-induced forgetting? Using a procedure in which some cues posed an impossible retrieval task for participants, we report evidence that the attempt to retrieve, even if unsuccessful, can produce retrieval-induced forgetting. This finding, we believe, supports and refines a suppression/inhibitory account of retrieval-induced forgetting.
