Introduction: Although the advantages of positive words on memory enhancement have been documented, the specific effects of the two prominent emotional dimensions (valence and arousal) under incidental encoding require further investigation. The objective is to study memory accuracy and response bias for positive/negative and highly/medium arousing words in a surprise old/new recognition memory paradigm under incidental encoding.

The role of meta-mood experience on the mood congruency effect in recognizing emotions from facial expressions Kavcıoğlu, Fatih Cemil; Gençöz, Tülin; Department of Psychology (2011) The aim of the current study was to investigate the roles of meta-mood experience on the mood congruency effect in recognizing emotions from neutral facial expressions. For this aim, three scales were translated and adapted to Turkish, namely Brief Mood Introspection Scale (BMIS), State Meta-Mood Scale (SMMS), and Trait Meta-Mood Scale (TMMS). The reliability and validity analyses came out to be satisfactory. For the main analyses, an experimental study was conducted. The experimental design consisted of th...
Encoding processes related to specific and overgeneral recall of the autobiographical memories in non-clinical depression Güzel, Mehmet Akif; İmamoğlu, Emine Olcay; Department of Psychology (2007) The purpose of the present study was to investigate the overgenerality phenomenon and to draw some inferences on possible encoding problems of autobiographical memories (ABMs) in a non-clinically depressed sample. Eighty-eight university students (25 male, 63 female) participated in the experiment using the Autobiographical Memory Test (AMT; Williams & Broadbent, 1986). The effects of depression level (low or high), cue emotional valences (positive, negative and neutral) and cue number (one or two at each s...
Emotional labor: dispositional antecedents and the role of affective events Yalçın, Aslı; Bilgiç, Reyhan; Department of Psychology (2010) The present study aimed to explore both situational (Emotional Display Rules and Affective Events) and dispositional antecedents (Four of Big Five personality dimensions; Extraversion, Neuroticism, Conscientiousness and Agreeableness) of emotional labor. Potential interaction effects of situational and dispositional variables on emotional labor; and long-term consequences of the construct were also examined. Data were collected from table servers working in cafés, restaurants, and hotels in Ankara, İstanbul...
Age related changes in recognition memory for emotional stimuli Kılıç, Aslı; Gökçay, Didem; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2007) Recognition memory - a type of episodic memory in long term memory - is known in the literature to be affected by emotion, aging and the modality of the presented stimuli. The major aim of this study was to investigate whether emotional stimuli enhances recognition memory. Another goal was to observe whether modality and aging effects are present and differentiable in a non-Western subject sample. In literature, emotion studies were based on mainly two dimensions of emotions: valence and arousal. However, t...
Transfer of Learning on a Spatial Memory Task between the Blind and Sighted People AKPINAR, SELÇUK; Popovic, Stevo; Kirazcı, Sadettin (2012-12-01) The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of two different types of feedback on a spatial memory task between the blind and blindfolded-sighted participants. Participants tried to estimate the predetermined distance by using their dominant hands. Both blind and blindfolded-sighted groups were randomly divided into two feedback subgroups as "100% frequency" and "10% bandwidth". The score of the participants was given verbally to the participants as knowledge of results (KR). The target distance was...
