The influence of emotion and scene component on the responses given
to same, similar and new items was analysed by conducting separate ANOVAs
on each of the different types of items for each experiment. The results from
the three 3 (emotion) x 2 (scene component) x 3 (response type) repeated
measures ANOVAs are reported below in Tables 5.1.5 and 5.1.6.
In summary, the emotional influence on memory for specific visual
details was apparent in the greater number of ‘same’ responses to same items
for emotional than neutral objects. The central-peripheral trade-off was not
significant in this experiment but, as described above, the pattern of results was
the same as for the other experiments. There was no indication of any
emotional influence on responding to items in the absence of recognition, as
evidenced by lack of any emotional effects on responses to new items.
