Two years after Portugal won the UEFA European Championship, we examined what the Portuguese remember of this momentous occasion. We investigated if flashbulb memories (FBMs) and event memories (EMs) were determined by distinct factors, and whether EM was a predictor of FBM. Participants responded to an online questionnaire about their FBM, EM and set of predictors. Structural equation modeling revealed that FBM and EM were associated with different pathways. Interest in football predicted importance which triggered emotional intensity which predicted personal rehearsal, a direct determinant of FBMs. On the other pathway, interest determined knowledge about football, the main predictor of EMs. Importantly, EM was a causal determinant of FBM which shows that the memory trace for the original event enhances memory for the reception context. The findings suggests that even though the two types of memories are determined by independent factors, they interact very closely.
葡萄牙赢得欧洲足球锦标赛两年后,我们调查了葡萄牙人对这一重大时刻的记忆。我们研究了闪光灯记忆(FBMs)和事件记忆(EMs)是否由不同因素决定,以及EM是否是FBM的预测指标。参与者对一份关于他们的FBM、EM和一系列预测因素的在线问卷做出了回应。结构方程模型显示,FBM和EM与不同的路径相关。对足球的兴趣预测了重要性,重要性引发了情感强度,情感强度预测了个人复述,而个人复述是FBM的直接决定因素。在另一条路径上,兴趣决定了关于足球的知识,而足球知识是EM的主要预测指标。重要的是,EM是FBM的因果决定因素,这表明原始事件的记忆痕迹增强了对接收情境的记忆。研究结果表明,尽管这两种记忆由独立因素决定,但它们之间的相互作用非常密切。
