State-Dependent Memory |
||||||
 |
||||||
 |
||||||
| In a 1977 experiment, volunteers drank an alcoholic or nonalcoholic beverage before studying a list of words. A day later, they tried to recall as many words as they could while either intoxicated or sober. Subjects who were intoxicated during both the study and test phases remembered more than those intoxicated only during the study phase, demonstrating the phenomenon of state-dependent memory. | ||||||
