Add to ORKGPrevious research has shown that emotionally-arousing stimuli are more likely to be remembered than neutral stimuli. The present study investigates whether this phenomenon is a general result of a state of emotional arousal. Recognition memory and recall memory for a subsequently presented word list was tested with 40 participants in a state of fear arousal or in a neutral state. Analysis revealed a significant main effect of recognition memory over recall memory (F(1, 36) = 35.93, p < .05, partial η2 = .50), but no main effect of arousal (F(1, 36) = .03, p > .05) and no interaction (F(1, 36) = 0.6, p > .05). Fear arousal does not appear to enhance memory for subsequently presented information, suggesting that the phenomenon of emo...
