The effects of acute stress on retrieval of visual and spatial material by Du Plooy, Christopher P

“…The aim of the studies reported in this dissertation was to explore the effects of an acute stressor (Study 1), and of administration of prednisone (Study 2), on retrieval of visual-spatial material (both emotional and neutral), and to compare the findings against three theories that attempt to account for the effects of stress on memory: the inverted-U hypothesis (de Kloet et al., 1999), hot-cool theory (Jacobs & Metcalfe, 1998), and the integrated vertical and horizontal perspective theory (Schwabe et al., 2012). …”
