摘要
负面情绪刺激与识别准确性的提高有关,但会降低对联想上下文的记忆,这种效应被称为“隧道记忆”(Steinmetz & Kensinger, 2013)。最近,Stewardson等人(2023)发现,社会线索可以增强认知和联想记忆,并削弱负面情绪对记忆的影响,这表明,当社会线索存在时,相关信息的加工和保留可能存在不同的机制。在本研究(在2023-2024年进行)中,我们试图复制这些发现,并使用眼动追踪来探索注意力作为这种差异背后的机制。正如预测的那样,负面图像和社交线索都增强了识别记忆,但对联想记忆的影响是不同的(负面图像减弱,社交图像增强)。缺少社交线索的负面图片与记忆和注意力的“隧道化”有关,也就是说,更好的识别能力,但更差的联想记忆,以及更频繁、更长的注视图片和更少的图片-物体扫视。相比之下,社交线索导致了注意力的部分隧道——也就是说,更频繁但更短的注视和更少的扫视——但增强了图片识别和联想记忆。也许最引人注目的是,当社交线索出现时,负面情绪对记忆和注意力的影响显著减弱。这些发现表明,消极和中性内容的处理和保留方式的差异取决于社会背景。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA,版权所有)。
Distinct signatures of social and emotional cues in memory and eye movements.
Negative emotional stimuli are associated with increased recognition accuracy but decreased memory for the associative context, an effect coined as "tunnel memory" (Steinmetz & Kensinger, 2013). Recently, Stewardson et al. (2023) found that social cues enhance both recognition and associative memory and weaken the effects of negative emotion on memory, suggesting potentially distinct mechanisms underlying how adaptively relevant information is processed and retained when social cues are present. In this study (conducted in 2023-2024), we sought to replicate these findings and use eye tracking to explore attention as a mechanism underlying this divergence. As predicted, both negative images and social cues enhanced recognition memory, with differential effects on associative memory (diminishing for negative, enhancing for social). Negative pictures with few social cues were associated with a "tunneling" of both memory and attention, that is, better recognition but poorer associative memory alongside more frequent, longer fixations on the picture and reduced picture-object saccades. By contrast, social cues led to a partial tunneling of attention-that is, more frequent but shorter fixations and fewer linking saccades-and yet enhanced both picture recognition and associative memory. Perhaps most striking, negative emotion's effects on memory and attention were significantly attenuated when social cues were present. These findings suggest that differences in how negative versus neutral content is processed and retained depend on the social context. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).
期刊介绍:
Emotion publishes significant contributions to the study of emotion from a wide range of theoretical traditions and research domains. The journal includes articles that advance knowledge and theory about all aspects of emotional processes, including reports of substantial empirical studies, scholarly reviews, and major theoretical articles. Submissions from all domains of emotion research are encouraged, including studies focusing on cultural, social, temperament and personality, cognitive, developmental, health, or biological variables that affect or are affected by emotional functioning. Both laboratory and field studies are appropriate for the journal, as are neuroimaging studies of emotional processes.
