Emotions and False Memories
研究发现情绪对虚假记忆的影响实际源于唤醒度而非效价：高唤醒状态下（无论正负中性）虚假记忆显著多于低唤醒状态。
The effects of mood on false memories have not been studied systematically until recently. Some results seem to indicate that negative mood may reduce false recall and thus suggest an influence of emotional valence on false memory. The present research tested the effects of both valence and arousal on recall and recognition and indicates that the effect is actually due to arousal. In fact, whether participants' mood is positive, negative, or neutral, false memories are significantly more frequent under conditions of high arousal than under conditions of low arousal.
