“…Competitors tended to recall more items that were initially recalled by their partners as compared with cooperators. This finding goes beyond that of Reysen and Adair (), which found that memory performance increases when study occurs in pairs as compared with alone. Experiment 1B extended this basic finding and found that competitors were more likely to make source errors and report false memories, as well.…”

“…Upon entering the laboratory, both participants signed the consent form, and then read the instructions. The general procedure was similar to that of Reysen and Adair (). In the first phase, each participant—alongside the confederate—was presented with a list of 30 words from different categories (e.g., Basketball, Tooth, Church, and Secretary), each shown on the screen for 4 seconds.…”

“…Recent studies have shown that social context can affect people's memory performance (e.g., Basden, Reysen, & Basden, ; Gabbert, Memon, & Wright, ; Reysen & Adair, ; Wright, Mathews, & Skagerberg, ; Wright & Klumpp, ; Wright & Villalba, ; Mano et al, ; Davis & Meade, ). For instance, Reysen and Adair () showed that simply being with another led to better memory, compared with when remembering alone. Mano et al () found further evidence of this relationship by showing significant activations in the right medial prefrontal cortex—which is known to be recruited during everyday communication and daily social interactions—when participants recalled words that had been studied and were tested in pairs.…”

Social Contagion in Competitors Versus Cooperators

The current study examined social contagion-or the spreading of memories from individual to individual-in two different social contexts: Competition and Cooperation. Participants were provided with words (Experiments 1A and 1B) or scenes (Experiment 2) to study. After study, participants were randomly divided: Half were given a competitive context, and the other half, a cooperative context. Then, in the paired recall phase, each participant took turns with a confederate partner in recalling the previously studied items. On a subsequent test, participants had to report the items that were recalled on the pair recall phase, in addition to who had recalled that item. The results showed that competitors, as compared with cooperators, were more likely to focus on other people's memories, and surprisingly, the same difference obtained for false memories. Essentially, people who are primed with a competitive context were more easily 'infected' by memories, true or false.

“…The perceptual details of human faces are processed differently than are either animate non-human entities or inanimate objects (McKone, Kanwisher, & Duchaine, 2007; but see Gauthier, Skudlarski, Gore, & Anderson, 2000). Memory for facts about people is better than that for inanimate objects (Mesoudi, Whiten, & Dunbar, 2006), and memory for information in general is better when the source of that information is a person as opposed to an inanimate object (e.g., a computer; Reysen & Adair, 2008). People themselves are also processed differently, depending on factors such as race and gender (Ito & Urland, 2003).…”

Memory for details about people: familiarity, relatedness, and gender congruency

This study examines factors that influence memory for details about people. In two experiments, subjects learned fictitious details about familiar (friends, relatives) and/or unfamiliar individuals, and were tested both immediately and after a 1-week delay. To control for a confounding between familiarity and genetic relatedness in Experiment 1, in Experiment 2 specific relationships (identical twin, first cousin, acquaintance) were assigned to unfamiliar individuals. Across experiments, retention was enhanced for familiar compared to unfamiliar individuals, for friends/acquaintances compared to relatives, for more closely than distantly related individuals, and for individuals of the opposite gender as the subject.

“…Alguns estudos sugerem contudo que a pressão social e o conformismo podem reforçar os efeitos da colaboração em contexto de brainstorming (e.g., Paulus & Dzindolet, 1993), na incorporação de falsas memórias (Meade & Roediger, 2002;Reysen & Adair, 2008) na emergência de erros de reconhecimento (Schneider & Watkins, 1996;Wright, Self, & Justice, 2000), e no declínio do desempenho mnésico (Reysen, 2005).…”
