Resumo: Greenwald and Banaji (1989) have shown that common words used together with personally relevant items (such as friends' names) are recalled much better than items used with non-personally relevant items (such as names of unknown people) and have interpreted the effect as based on differential cognitive processing of materials. To assess the possibility that the effect may depend on the positive affective value of friends' names, the present study replicated Greenwald and Banaji's, including enemies' names besides the other ones. There was no significant difference between recall of material associated to friends' or enemies' names; recall of both was superior to that of material associated to unknown people's names. The degree of liking/disliking of friends and enemies was not linked to different recall performance. Such results reinforce a cognitive interpretation of memory facilitation of self relevant materials.

Greenwald e Banaji (1989) mostraram que palavras comuns ligadas a termos relevantes do ponto de vista da pessoa (como nomes de amigos) são melhor lembradas do que palavras ligadas a termos sem a mesma relevância (como nomes de desconhecidos) e propuseram uma interpretação do efeito em termos de diferenças no processamento cognitivo destes materiais. A fim de testar uma interpretação alternativa, replicou-se o estudo mencionado, usando, além de nomes de amigos e de desconhecidos, nomes de pessoas de quem os sujeitos não gostavam (inimigos). Verificou-se efeitos equivalentes no caso de amigos e inimigos e uma superioridade de ambos sobre os nomes de desconhecidos. O nível afetivo do relacionamento (gostar-não gostar) não afetou a memória. Os resultados reforçam uma hipótese cognitiva da facilitação mnêmica. Universidade de São Paulo.
