Abstract
⺠We study time course of effects of emotion on item memory and source memory for Chinese words. ⺠Negative emotion enhances free recall, whereas there is only a trend that positive emotion enhances free recall; in addition, the enhancement effect of emotion on free recall becomes more marked only within a certain frame of time. ⺠Negative emotion reduces recognition, whereas positive emotion has no effect on recognition. ⺠Neither positive nor negative emotion has any effect on source memory.
