The performance of repressors and sensitizers on a solvable anagram task was assessed after either a short delay (0 to 30 min) or a long delay (2 to 6 hr) following a standard learned helplessness induction. Results indicated that all subjects exposed to the learned helplessness induction exhibited performance deficits, compared with control subjects exposed to no induction. Furthermore, subjects who were tested after the short delay did not perform as well as subjects tested after a long delay. No difference in overall anagram performance was found between repressors and sensitizers. Consistent with theoretical predictions, however, the anagram performance of repressor subjects was significantly better in the long-delay than in the short-delay condition; this significant recovery effect between short- and long-delay conditions was not obtained for sensitizer subjects. Possible theoretical mechanisms for these effects and implications for future research are noted.
在经过标准的习得性无助诱导后，分别在短延迟（0至30分钟）或长延迟（2至6小时）后，评估压抑者和敏感者在可解决的变位词任务上的表现。结果表明，与未接受诱导的对照组相比，所有接受习得性无助诱导的受试者均表现出表现缺陷。此外，短延迟后接受测试的受试者表现不如长延迟后接受测试的受试者。在压抑者和敏感者之间未发现变位词总体表现的差异。然而，与理论预测一致，压抑者受试者在长延迟条件下的变位词表现明显优于短延迟条件；敏感者受试者在短延迟和长延迟条件之间未获得这种显著的恢复效应。文中指出了这些效应可能的理论机制以及对未来研究的启示。
