What is Stress Enhances Memory for Negatives about?
This study examined how acute stress affects memory discrimination of emotional versus neutral information. Participants encoded scenes and then underwent a stress or control task. They later discriminated between old, new, and similar scenes. Stress enhanced discrimination of negative but not neutral scenes. Cortisol increases were linked to better negative discrimination, suggesting stress hormones influence precision of emotional memories.
