Not only explicit but also implicit memory has considerable influence on our daily life. However, it is still unclear whether explicit and implicit memories are sensitive to individual differences. Here, we investigated how individual perception style (global or local) correlates with implicit and explicit memory. As a result, we found that not explicit but implicit memory was affected by the perception style: local perception style people more greatly used implicit memory than global perception style people. These results help us to make the new effective application adapting to individual perception style and understand some clinical symptoms such as autistic spectrum disorder. Furthermore, this finding might give us new insight of memory involving consciousness and unconsciousness as well as relationship between implicit/explicit memory and individual perception style.
不仅外显记忆，内隐记忆对我们的日常生活也有相当大的影响。然而，外显记忆和内隐记忆是否对个体差异敏感仍不清楚。在这里，我们研究了个体感知风格（整体或局部）与内隐记忆和外显记忆之间的关系。结果发现，受感知风格影响的并非外显记忆而是内隐记忆：局部感知风格的人比整体感知风格的人更多地使用内隐记忆。这些结果有助于我们针对个体感知风格进行新的有效应用，并理解一些临床症状，如自闭症谱系障碍。此外，这一发现可能会让我们对涉及意识和无意识的记忆以及内隐/外显记忆与个体感知风格之间的关系有新的认识。
