Emotions describe a complex set of interactions between subjective and objective variables that are mediated by neural and hormonal systems, which can (a) give rise to affective experiences of emotional valence (pleasure-displeasure) and emotional arousal (high-low activation/calming-arousing); (b) generate cognitive processes such as emotionally relevant perceptual affect, appraisals ...

For example, even when emotional and neutral stimuli are intermixed on a study list and are presented for a relatively short duration (e.g., a few seconds), arousal-related responses, such as galvanic skin conductance, are strong predictors of later memory (e.g., Anderson et al., 2006), and noradrenergic blockade can remove the effects of emotion on memory (e.g., Strange & Dolan, 2007).
A stress hormone stimulant produced the strongest memory effects, whereas a stress hormone depressant produced the weakest memory for an emotionally arousing story relative to controls. Such results nicely demonstrate the relationship between level of arousal and memory. Imaging results also find a similar correlation between arousal and ...

To address the question raised earlier in this chapter of whether stress hormone effects on memory consolidation require emotional arousal, we recently investigated the importance of emotional arousal in influencing stress hormone effects on memory consolidation in rats trained on an object recognition task. 11 Learning tasks in animal experiments are often emotionally arousing because of the ...

Oct 10, 2014 · Neuroscience research has explored and shed light on the brain regions and neural pathways that may explain the modulatory effects of arousal on memory. Arousal has been shown to affect what aspects of stimulus information we remember, although much remains equivocal. Some research points to arousal heightening memory for central details at the ...
