Inhibitory effects in collaborative recall have been attributed to cross-cueing among partners, in the same way that part-set cues are known to impair recall in individuals. However, studies of part-set cueing in individuals typically involve presenting cues visually at the start of recall, whereas cross-cueing in collaboration is likely to be spoken and distributed over time. In an attempt to bridge this gap, three experiments investigated effects of presenting spoken part-set or extra-list cues at different times during individual recall. Cues had an inhibitory effect on recollection in the early part of the recall period, especially when presented in immediate succession at the start of recall. There was no difference between the effects of part-set and extra-list cues under these presentation conditions. However, more inhibition was generated by part-set than extra-list cues when cue presentation was distributed throughout recall. These results are interpreted as suggesting that cues presented during recall disrupt memory in two ways, corresponding to either blocking or modifying retrieval processes. Implications for explaining and possibly ameliorating inhibitory effects in collaborative recall are discussed.
协同回忆中的抑制效应被归因于伙伴之间的交叉提示,就像部分线索已知会损害个体的回忆一样。然而,个体中部分线索提示的研究通常涉及在回忆开始时以视觉方式呈现线索,而协同中的交叉提示很可能是口头的且随时间分布。为了弥合这一差距,三项实验研究了在个体回忆的不同时间呈现口头部分线索或列表外线索的效果。线索在回忆期的早期对回忆有抑制作用,尤其是在回忆开始时连续呈现时。在这些呈现条件下,部分线索和列表外线索的效果没有差异。然而,当线索呈现分布在整个回忆过程中时,部分线索比列表外线索产生的抑制作用更强。这些结果被解释为表明回忆期间呈现的线索以两种方式破坏记忆,分别对应于阻断或修改检索过程。讨论了对解释并可能改善协同回忆中抑制效应的意义。
