Abstract

Visual system is crucial to autobiographical memory. Research tended to show that blind adults may compensate for the loss of visual information in retrieval of their autobiographical memories. Much less is known about how blind children's autobiographical memory develops in the absence of visual information. Using cue-word methodology, 36 sighted and 33 blind early teenagers were asked to recall memories and subsequently rated phenomenological qualities of their memories. Retrieval latency, the number of prompts provided, episodic and non-episodic details reported for each memory were coded. In terms of memory accessibility, the blind group recalled comparable number of memories with comparable latency to retrieve memories, but they needed more prompting. Blind participants recalled similar number of episodic details; however, they reported more extraneous details, decreasing specificity. Blind early teenagers reported higher auditory imagery, a propensity to remember events from the first-person perspective, and a tendency to remember events as coherent stories.

失明和健视青少年的自传体记忆:记忆的可及性、偶发性和现象学
视觉系统对自传体记忆至关重要。研究倾向于表明,失明成人在检索自传体记忆时可以补偿视觉信息的损失。至于盲童在缺乏视觉信息的情况下如何发展自传体记忆,目前所知甚少。通过使用提示词方法,36 名视力正常的青少年和 33 名失明青少年被要求回忆记忆,并随后对其记忆的现象质量进行评分。对每段记忆的检索潜伏期、提示次数、情节性和非情节性细节进行了编码。就记忆的可及性而言,盲人组回忆起的记忆数量相当,检索记忆的延迟时间也相当,但他们需要更多的提示。盲人参与者回忆起的情节细节数量相似,但他们报告了更多无关细节,从而降低了特异性。早期失明青少年的听觉意象较高,倾向于从第一人称视角记忆事件,并倾向于将事件记忆为连贯的故事。

期刊介绍: Applied Cognitive Psychology seeks to publish the best papers dealing with psychological analyses of memory, learning, thinking, problem solving, language, and consciousness as they occur in the real world. Applied Cognitive Psychology will publish papers on a wide variety of issues and from diverse theoretical perspectives. The journal focuses on studies of human performance and basic cognitive skills in everyday environments including, but not restricted to, studies of eyewitness memory, autobiographical memory, spatial cognition, skill training, expertise and skilled behaviour. Articles will normally combine realistic investigations of real world events with appropriate theoretical analyses and proper appraisal of practical implications.
