背景 研究表明,大量饮酒对回顾性记忆有不利影响。人们对酒精对日常记忆的影响知之甚少。 方法 这项研究检查了记忆表现的两个方面的自我评级:前瞻性记忆(例如,忘记传递信息)和日常记忆(通过认知失败来衡量,例如告诉别人你以前告诉过他们的笑话)。为了确保匿名性并扩大先前研究中使用的参与者数量,使用互联网收集数据。763名参与者的数据在数据筛选后保留。 结果 在控制了其他药物和策略的使用后,有明确的证据表明,酒精的差异使用与前瞻性记忆的长期方面的障碍和认知失败的数量增加有关。 结论 这些结果支持并扩展了以前的研究结果:我们的研究结果与大量饮酒确实对日常认知能力产生重大负面影响的观点一致。这些损伤的可能原因进行了讨论。
BACKGROUND Research has shown that heavy alcohol use has a detrimental effect on retrospective memory. Less is known about the effect of alcohol on everyday memory. METHODS This study examined self-ratings of two aspects of memory performance: prospective memory (for example, forgetting to pass on a message) and everyday memory (measured by cognitive failures, such as telling someone a joke that you have told them before). To ensure anonymity and expand on the numbers of participants used in previous studies, data were collected by using the Internet. Data from 763 participants remained after data screening. RESULTS After controlling for other drug and strategy use, there was clear evidence that differential use of alcohol was associated with impairments in the long-term aspect of prospective memory and with an increased number of cognitive failures. CONCLUSIONS These results support and extend the findings of previous research: our findings are consistent with the idea that heavy use of alcohol does have a significant and negative effect on everyday cognitive performance. Possible causes of these impairments are discussed.
