Anxiety fosters relational encoding
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents an experimental study of the influence of state-anxiety on relational encoding. It demonstrates that induced state anxiety enhances encoding of relations. Participants in the anxiety group were faster and more accurate in recognizing identical relations in two successive stimuli than the participants in the non-anxiety group.

متن کاملRelation of depression and anxiety to self- and peer-reported relational aggression.
The primary purpose of this multimethod and multimeasure study was to identify how the peer relationships of Australian adolescents (ages 9-15 years; N = 335) at school, including relational aggression and victimization, correlated with their symptoms of depression and anxiety.

متن کاملRelational labels can improve relational retrieval
Retrieval that is based on common relational structure, such as an underlying principle or pattern, is useful but typically rare. Based on evidence that comparison-derived schema abstraction can improve relational retrieval, we asked whether the use of relational labels can also promote abstraction and improve relational retrieval. Using a cued-recall paradigm, we varied the presence of relatio...
متن کاملWhen does memory monitoring succeed versus fail? Comparing item-specific and relational encoding in the DRM paradigm.
We compared the effects of item-specific versus relational encoding on recognition memory in the Deese-Roediger-McDermott paradigm. In Experiment 1, we directly compared item-specific and relational encoding instructions, whereas in Experiments 2 and 3 we biased pleasantness and generation tasks, respectively, toward one or the other type of processing. A read condition was tested in each exper...
متن کاملUnconscious relational encoding depends on hippocampus
Textbooks divide between human memory systems based on consciousness. Hippocampus is thought to support only conscious encoding, while neocortex supports both conscious and unconscious encoding. We tested whether processing modes, not consciousness, divide between memory systems in three neuroimaging experiments with 11 amnesic patients (mean age=45.55 years, standard deviation=8.74, range=23-6...
