It appears that age and hippocampal damage are factors that may influence all listed everyday problems, whereas other factors such as visual impairments and mood may cause only specific spatial memory problems. Everyday spatial ...

Mood Dependent Memory for Events of the Personal Past
... Given that strong and stable moods are keys to demonstrating MDM, how can such moods be induced? In the current research, an answer was sought through the use of the continuous music technique (CMT) devised by Eich and Metcalfe (1989). By this technique, subjects are asked to entertain elating or de ...

Cognitive Correlates of Subjective Well-Being

To understand this question, it is necessary to understand the cognitive processes that underlie people’s reactions to positive and negative life experiences and how these experiences are ...

He argued that word association norms were able to predict the occurrence of particular extra-list intrusions. His results indicated that the ...

Proactive interference slows recognition by eliminating fast

Our analyses focused on both the speed and accuracy of recognition as a function of PI. We discuss how PI might affect both aspects of recognition within ...

Cognitive Style Diversity in Decision Making Teams

Research on dominant responses (well-learned and habitual actions or reactions) has shown that in the presence of other people,deeply held tendencies are particularly strong (Lambert, Payne, Jacoby, Shaffer, Chasteen, & Kahn, 2003), which implies that on a team, members will rely heavily on their co ...
