The effect of important others-reference on directed forgetting of negative words
In this study,the directed forgetting paradigm was used to verify whether there would be di-rected forgetting of negative personality adjectives and negative event words under the reference of impor-tant others.The results showed that under the reference of important others,the directed forgetting of two types of negative words had occurred,but the effects were different from person to person.Under the ref-erence of the best friend,the directed forgetting showed in two kinds of negative words,but it was un-stable.Under the reference of mother,the directed forgetting effect showed in two types of negative words steady.It indicated that both the closest friend and mother were closely related to self,and mother might be a part of the self-structure.
