Adaptive memory in contamination contexts
Previous studies have reported a memory advantage for information previously associated with contamination cues (vs. non-contamination) – the contamination effect. In four experiments, we explored the role of emotionality in this effect. Participants recruited on prolific academic saw pictures (Experiment 1, N = 97; Experiment 4, N = 100) or names (Experiment 2, N = 92) of objects alongside illness (vs. neutral) descriptors or objects held by dir…
Misinformation in social interaction
Memory is a reconstructive process that is prone to intrusions and distortions. These processes can be amplified by the emergence and propagation of false information in the social environment. While the acceptance of misinformation is well documented in individual memory tasks, the production of false memories in social interaction contexts presents mixed findings. One factor that may contribute to these inconsistencies is the collaboration meth…

Using Emoji in Response to Customer Reservation Requests and Service Reviews
The use of paralinguistic cues—including emoji—in computer-mediated communication has become prevalent in recent years. Brands and service providers have also been using these cues in their communication strategies. And yet, research examining how such emoji use influences customers’ perception and behavior is still scarce. In two experiments (combined N = 401 ), we tested if using emoji to reply to a customer request (restaurant reservation, Stu…
Does the Linguistic Expectancy Bias Extend to a Second Language
The linguistic expectancy bias (LEB) reflects the tendency to describe expectancy-consistent behavior more abstractly than expectancy-inconsistent. The current studies replicate the LEB in Portuguese and examine it in a second language (English). Earlier studies found differences in processing a first language (L1) and a second language (L2) shaping affective and cognitive processes. We did not expect these differences to shape the LEB because co…
Surviving in a second language
Human memory likely evolved to serve adaptive functions, that is, to help maximise our chances of survival and reproduction. One demonstration of such adaptiveness is the increased retention of information processed in survival contexts, the so-called Survival Processing Effect (SPE). This study examined this effect in a native (L1) and in a second language (L2). This comparison is relevant to explore if emotionality is involved in the SPE, as em…

Relationship quality influences attitudes toward and perceptions of infidelity
Do attitudes toward and perceptions of infidelity depend on perceived relationship quality? A prediction was made that there should be a positive correlation between perceived relationship quality and negative attitudes and perceptions of infidelity, and that these correlations should be stronger for males than for females. These predictions were confirmed. More specifically, strongly negative evaluations of infidelity were reported by females re…
Efeito de Inibição Colaborativa
O presente artigo tem como objetivo proporcionar a compreensão do efeito de inibição colaborativa. Este efeito, traduz-se no facto de o desempenho mnésico de um grupo colaborativo ser inferior ao desempenho de um grupo nominal. Para tal, ao longo desta revisão focaremos os principais estudos e resultados no âmbito da memória colaborativa; identificaremos os fatores e variáveis que influenciam este efeito; e, finalmente debateremos as principais h…
Influência da idade, desejabilidade social e memória na sugestionabilidade infantil
A sugestionabilidade infantil é influenciada pela capacidade de memória, idade ou desejabilidade social. Este estudo teve como objetivo estudar estes fatores em três grupos de crianças com idades de 5/6 anos, 8/9 anos e 10/11 anos. Para tanto procedemos à construção de uma escala de avaliação da sugestionabilidade infantil baseada na Escala de Sugestionabilidade de Gudjonsson (GSS; Gudjonsson, 1997). Os resultados obtidos revelaram que as criança…
