Representational momentum (RM) is a distortion in memory for the final position of an object in the direction implied by a set of discrete inducing displays (J.J. Freyd, 1987; J.J. Freyd & R.A. Finke, 1984). The effect has been shown under a wide variety of circumstances, which has led to assertions that it is a general enough phenomenon to extend to virtually any dimension of change. It is reported here that decisions about luminance seem not to be subject to RM. Instead, a robust effect in the direction opposite to that predicted by the RM hypothesis was observed. It is argued that RM might be more usefully considered limited to dimensions of change correlated with motion in the real world, and some initial hypotheses as to the nature of the mechanism underlying this new luminance effect are presented.
表征动量（RM）是指在一组离散诱导显示所暗示的方向上，对物体最终位置的记忆出现的扭曲现象（J.J. 弗雷德，1987年；J.J. 弗雷德和R.A. 芬克，1984年）。在各种各样的情况下都已显示出这种效应，这使得有人断言，它是一种足够普遍的现象，几乎可以扩展到任何变化维度。据报道，关于亮度的判断似乎不受RM的影响。相反，观察到了一种与RM假设所预测的方向相反的强烈效应。有人认为，或许更有用的观点是将RM限制在与现实世界中的运动相关的变化维度上，并提出了一些关于这种新亮度效应背后机制本质的初步假设。
