The effect of lateralized cerebral damage on free recall of items and recall of spatial location, under intentional and incidental learning conditions, was investigated. Eleven right brain-damaged (RBD) patients, 10 left brain-damaged (LBD) patients, 14 young and 11 elderly normal controls, participated in this study. The overall performance of the control groups was better than that of the patient groups. For all groups, free recall was better under intentional than under incidental learning condition. On recall of spatial location the learning condition had a differential effect on the groups. The RBD group performed better than the LBD group under intentional learning condition, while the reverse was found under incidental learning condition. The young-control group showed an advantage over the elderly-control group under intentional but not under incidental learning condition. The results are discussed in regard to different approaches to the distinction between automatic and effortful memory processes and their lateralization in the cerebral hemispheres.
研究了在有意学习和偶然学习条件下，大脑单侧损伤对物品自由回忆和空间位置回忆的影响。11名右脑损伤（RBD）患者、10名左脑损伤（LBD）患者、14名年轻正常对照者和11名老年正常对照者参与了本研究。对照组的总体表现优于患者组。对于所有组，有意学习条件下的自由回忆优于偶然学习条件。在空间位置回忆方面，学习条件对各组有不同影响。在有意学习条件下，RBD组的表现优于LBD组，而在偶然学习条件下则相反。年轻对照组在有意学习条件下比老年对照组有优势，但在偶然学习条件下则不然。结合区分自动记忆和努力记忆过程的不同方法及其在大脑半球中的侧化对结果进行了讨论。
