- Influence of the typicality of the actions in a mugging script on retrieval-induced forgetting Elvira García-Bajos Malen Migueles Psicología Research has demonstrated that the act of remembering can prompttemporary forgetting or inhibition of related contents in memory. This studyextends the retrieval-induced forgetting effect to the recall of actions of anevent. Based on a normative data study, high- and low-typicality actions of amugging event were selected. The participants studied verified facts (hightypicalityactions) and non-verified facts (low-typicality actions). They thenpracticed retrieving half of the high- or low-typicality actions of the event,and a non-practice control group was added. In the final task the threegroups tried to recall both verified and non-verified facts of the event.Conventional retrieval-induced forgetting was found for low-typicalityactions, but a comparable forgetting effect did not emerge in the hightypicalityactions. This finding suggests that the activation of scripts mayprotect typical event information from retrieval-induced forgetting. Theintegration of the script actions makes them resistant to inhibitory processes. 2006 artículo científico 0211-2159 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=16927106 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=169 Psicológica application/pdf Universitat de València Psicológica (España) Num.1 Vol.27
