As a means of clarifying the memory dynamics that underlie retrieval-induced forgetting, we explored how instructing participants either to remember or to forget a previously presented list of items influences the susceptibility of those items to inhibition. According to the inhibitory account of retrieval-induced forgetting, it is the items that interfere most with retrieval practice that should be the most susceptible to the effects of inhibition. Consistent with this prediction, items from lists that participants were told to remember suffered from significantly more retrieval-induced forgetting than did items from lists that participants were told to forget.
作为一种阐明构成提取诱发遗忘基础的记忆动态机制的方法，我们探究了指示参与者记住或忘记之前呈现的一组项目如何影响这些项目受到抑制的易感性。根据提取诱发遗忘的抑制理论，那些对提取练习干扰最大的项目应该最容易受到抑制作用的影响。与这一预测一致，与被告知忘记的项目组中的项目相比，被告知记住的项目组中的项目遭受的提取诱发遗忘要多得多。
