PrepTest 156 - Section 2 - Question 22

Show summary

Researcher: Support Experiences that are accompanied by increased secretions of adrenaline—a hormone produced in situations involving fear—tend to be remembered more clearly than experiences not so accompanied. █████ ███ ███████ ██ ███████████ ███████████ ████ ██ ██ ██████████ ████ ███████ ████ ██ ███ ███████ ██ ██████████████ ████████████

Summarize Argument: Phenomenon-Hypothesis

A Researcher hypothesizes that the details of frightening experiences tend to be better remembered than those of nonfrightening experiences. This is because the Researcher observed that increased adrenaline secretion (which occurs during frightening experiences) enhances the clarity of one’s memory in those moments.

Notable Assumptions

The author assumes that adrenaline secretion is one of (if not the primary) factors explaining why frightening experiences are more clearly remembered. The author also assumes that nonfighting experiences typically do not involve increased adrenaline levels.
