A profoundly amnesic patient with a left retrosplenial-fornix lesion was tested on a recognition task that evaluated both verbal and electrodermal aspects of new learning. In addition, "implicit memory" tasks (mirror reading and perceptual identification) were given. The patient displayed strong evidence of learning on all tasks although the results of this learning were not represented in explicit recall or recognition. These findings suggest that autonomic as well as behavioral evidence can index spared memory functions in amnesia. The specific meaning of electrodermal recognition and its possible place in the distinction between implicit and explicit memory is discussed.
一名患有左侧压后皮质-穹窿损伤的严重失忆患者接受了一项识别任务测试，该任务评估了新学习的言语和皮肤电反应方面。此外，还进行了“内隐记忆”任务（镜像阅读和知觉识别）。尽管这种学习的结果未在明确的回忆或识别中体现，但患者在所有任务中都表现出了强烈的学习证据。这些发现表明，自主神经以及行为证据可以为失忆症中保留的记忆功能提供指标。文中讨论了皮肤电反应识别的具体意义及其在区分内隐记忆和外显记忆中可能的地位。
