Abstract

Past research demonstrated enhanced memory for information encoded with relevance to a survival scenario compared to a control scenario, an effect referred to as the survival processing effect in memory. This effect has been explained by a proximate mechanism hypothesis (i.e., survival processing enables deep elaborative processing that promotes memory). In support of this hypothesis, past research found that, during encoding, the survival processing effect was largely intact under a perceptual or low-load secondary task condition but eliminated under a high-load secondary task condition. To test semantic encoding as a possible proximate mechanism, the current study assesses the impact of high-load and low-load divided attention tasks that require semantic processing of digits on the survival processing effect. Seventy-two young adults rated words for their relevance to two survival scenarios (i.e., grassland and mountain) and one non-survival control scenario (i.e., cruise), while completing a concurrent high-load or low-load semantic digit-monitoring task. No survival processing effect was found in either condition. The results suggest that semantic encoding probably serves as a proximate mechanism for the survival processing effect in memory.

语义分裂注意下记忆的生存加工效应。
过去的研究表明,与控制情景相比,对与生存情景相关的信息编码的记忆增强,这种效应被称为记忆中的生存处理效应。这种效应可以用一种近似的机制假说来解释(即,生存加工能够促进深度精细加工,从而促进记忆)。为了支持这一假设,过去的研究发现,在编码过程中,在感知或低负荷的次要任务条件下,生存加工效应基本完整,而在高负荷的次要任务条件下,生存加工效应被消除。为了验证语义编码作为一种可能的近似机制,本研究评估了需要数字语义加工的高负荷和低负荷分散注意任务对生存加工效应的影响。72名年轻人在完成高负荷或低负荷语义数字监测任务的同时,对单词与两个生存情景(即草原和山区)和一个非生存控制情景(即巡航)的相关性进行评分。两种条件下均未发现生存加工效应。结果表明,语义编码可能是记忆中生存加工效应的近似机制。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA,版权所有)。

期刊介绍: The Canadian Journal of Experimental Psychology publishes original research papers that advance understanding of the field of experimental psychology, broadly considered. This includes, but is not restricted to, cognition, perception, motor performance, attention, memory, learning, language, decision making, development, comparative psychology, and neuroscience. The journal publishes - papers reporting empirical results that advance knowledge in a particular research area; - papers describing theoretical, methodological, or conceptual advances that are relevant to the interpretation of empirical evidence in the field; - brief reports (less than 2,500 words for the main text) that describe new results or analyses with clear theoretical or methodological import.
