No full text"Questo studio esamina gli effetti del video 2D rispetto al video a 360° sulla memoria e la formazione di falsi ricordi in contesti stressanti. Studi precedenti dimostrano che le esperienze emotivamente coinvolgenti possono portare a falsi ricordi(Bower et al., 2018; Skadberg & Yao, 2018). Inoltre, eventi stressanti possono influenzare l'accuratezza della memoria. L'uso della VR, come il video a 360°, può aumentare la formazione di falsi ricordi. Lo studio utilizza un disegno sperimentale 2x2 between e due variabili indipendenti: Arousal ("CarCrash" vs. "NoCarCrash") e Point of View (Fisso vs. 360°). I partecipanti sono stati assegnati casualmente a una delle quattro condizioni sperimentali e hanno guardato un video seguito da un test di riconoscimento. I risultati mostrano che l'esperienza stressante riduce l'accuratezza dei riconoscimenti(Schacter, 2001), ma un'esperienza più interattiva migliora le risposte corrette. Tuttavia, i partecipanti nella condizione 360° tendono ad accettare più spesso stimoli "Plausibili" come "Vecchi" o “Familiari" rispetto ai partecipanti nella condizione "Fisso". Questo studio ha implicazioni importanti per la memoria autobiografica e può essere rilevante in contesti forensi in cui l'accuratezza della memoria è cruciale. L'uso della realtà virtuale può contribuire alla validità ecologica delle presentazioni di stimoli, migliorando l'immersione e la presenza dei partecipanti.
Memories of future past. The role of predictions and lived experiences on memory accuracy.
No full textAffective touch, affective congruency, and memory accuracy
No full textPrevious studies have shown that affective touch generates a specific response in a subclass of mechanoreceptive afferents and that, in turn, the perception of affective touch is topdown modulated by higher cognitive processes. This literature has contributed to the emergence of a scientific controversy on the role of affective congruency in the multisensory integration processes. In this experiment, we test whether affective congruency (consistent vs. inconsistent) between touch (affective vs. negative vs. control) and visual stimuli (positive vs. negative) can modulate memory (specifically the acceptance of doctored critical lures). Participants observed 18 images (9 positive) while an unseen, trained experimenter touched (or not, controls) their forearm with a soft brush vs. coarse sandpaper. After 20 minutes, participants' recognition was tested in an OLD/NEW paradigm. Elements from the original stimuli were presented either intact (original) or doctored (omission and commission errors). More memory errors were made in the touch trials, compared to no touch, and in congruent than in incongruent trials, suggesting that the effect of touch on memory is specific. Results
will be discussed against most recent findings in the embodied memory framework, and practical implication of affective congruency effects examined for research and forensic practitioners
