En este articulo se revisaran los estudios sobre la influencia de las emociones sobre el funcionamiento de la memoria y, en particular, la produccion de falsos recuerdos. Los falsos recuerdos son un tipo de distorsion, que son la memoria acerca de acontecimientos que nunca se produjieron. Las emociones son descritas por las dimensiones de valencia y excitacion. Numerosos estudios han sugerido que la valencia y alerta pueden beneficiar la memoria por distintos procesos cognitivos y mecanismos neuronales. Ya la investigacion sobre la influencia de las emociones en la produccion de falsos recuerdos es todavia incipiente, y difiere en sus resultados. El objetivo principal del presente articulo sera el debate metodologico de la investigacion que relaciona las emociones con los falsos reconocimientos, y las explicaciones teoricas que se han producido para dar cuenta de este fenomeno. Por ultimo, presentamos algunas sugerencias para futuros estudios, y el estado actual de la investigacion desarrollada en Brasil acerca de esta tematica.

La influencia de la emoción en los falsos recuerdos: una revisión crítica

The present research aimed to develop and produce evidence of the validity of an Implicit Association Test (IAT) for BJW. Two studies were developed to achieve this objective. Study 1 tested the convergent validity of a preliminary version of an IAT with an explicit measure (Global Belief in Just World Scale). The sample consisted of 119 participants who took part via the internet. After adjustments of the preliminary version, two IATs were developed, one for the general dimension (G-IAT) and another for the personal dimension of BJW (P-IAT). Both implicit measures and the explicit BJW measure were applied to 139 participants in a study conducted online. Both IATs demonstrated satisfactory psychometric properties and only the G-IAT correlates with the GBJWS as hypothesized.

Implicit deservingness: Implicit association test for belief in a just world

Normative studies are common in cognitive psychology because they allow us to estimate with more precision the attributes of the stimuli used in empirical studies. The studies reported here had fou...

Norms for Familiarity, Concreteness, Valence, Arousal, Wordlikeness, and Recall Accuracy for Swahili–Portuguese Word Pairs:

The mood induction paradigm has been an important tool for investigating the effects of negative emotional states on working memory (WM) executive functions. Though some evidence showed that negative mood has a differential effect on verbal and visuospatial WM, other findings did not report a similar effect. To explore this issue, we examined the negative mood’s impact on verbal and visuospatial WM executive tasks based on grammatical reasoning and visuospatial rotation. Participants with no anxiety or depression disorders performed the tasks before and after negative (n = 14) or neutral (n = 13) mood induction. Participants’ mood at the beginning and the end of the session was assessed by the Present Mood States List (LEAP) and word valence rating. The analyses showed changes in the emotional state of the negative group (ps .83) in the LEAP instrument. No significant differences between groups were observed in the WM tasks (ps > .33). Performance in the visuospatial WM task improved after mood induction for both groups (p < .05), possibly due to a practice effect. In sum, our findings challenge the view that negative mood modulates WM executive functions; thus, they were discussed considering the similarities and differences between studies that found negative mood effects on WM and those that did not find. Different WM tasks tap distinct processes and components, which may underlie behavioral effects of negative mood on WM tasks.

Based on the arena of social networks, the tool developed in this study aims to identify trends mood among undergraduate students. Combining the methodology Self-Assessment Manikin (SAM), which originated in the field of Psychology, the system filters the content provided on the Web and isolates certain words, establishing a range of values as perceived positive, negative or neutral. A Big Data summarizing the results, assisting in the construction and visualization of behavioral profiles generic, so we have a guideline for the development of information visualization tools for social networks.

SocialMood: an information visualization tool to measure the mood of the people in social networks

Norms of arousal and valence for 908 Portuguese words were collected using SAM (Self-Assessment Manikin). In this study 4359 undergraduates from four universities participated. Words from each of the affective space quadrant were identified suggesting that they can be categorized along the arousal (from relaxing to more arousing words) and valence (from unpleasant to pleasant words) emotional dimensions. The reliability of the norms for valence (r = 0,97) and arousal (r = 0,94) was high and significant. Results showed that arousal and valence were not associated with sex, age or printed word frequency indicating that the factors can be considered orthogonal.

Normas de alerta e valência para 908 palavras da Língua Portuguesa

Normas de associacao para 1004 palavras do portugues brasileiro sao apresentadas. Aplicando-se o paradigma da Associacao Livre, coletou-se a primeira palavra que viesse a mente dos participantes, evitando-se efeitos de inibicao e encadeamento de respostas. Associadas de cada pista foram produzidas por um minimo de 100 participantes. Oriundos de IES publica e privada, matriculados em 44 cursos, 871 estudantes universitarios participaram da coleta. As normas relatam a Forca Associativa Direta de todas as associadas, e varias incluem a Forca Associativa Reversa. O numero de associadas por pista variou de 2 a 26, sendo que as palavras mais fortemente associadas ocuparam as primeiras seis posicoes associativas. Discutem-se a generalidade e a validade de normas de associacao. Palavras-chave : normas; associacao livre; forca associativa direta; forca associativa reversa.
