An assessment of the Hasher and Zacks (1979) conceptualization of the automatic nature of the acquisition of spatial location information was made in the context of manipulations of subjects' intention to learn and mood state. The Velten (1968) mood induction procedure was used to establish depressed and nondepressed subjects. Half of each group was then presented with a matrix of geometric forms under instructions to learn the location of the forms (intentional) or to evaluate the pleasantness of the array (incidental). Subsequent tests of spatial location performance found no differences as a function of subjects' mood state, but did find a strong effect for instructional condition. The superior performance of the intentional subjects raises questions about the automatic nature of the encoding of spatial location.
在对受试者学习意图和情绪状态进行操控的背景下,对哈舍和扎克斯(1979年)关于空间位置信息获取的自动性概念进行了评估。采用了韦尔滕(1968年)的情绪诱导程序来确定抑郁和非抑郁的受试者。然后,每组中的一半受试者在学习形状位置(有意)或评估阵列的愉悦度(偶然)的指导下,面对一个几何形状矩阵。随后对空间位置表现的测试发现,作为受试者情绪状态的函数没有差异,但确实发现了教学条件的强烈影响。有意受试者的优越表现引发了关于空间位置编码自动性的问题。
