Resumo(s)
No presente estudo, propomos que o processamento de informações sociais é
influenciado pelo contexto em que ocorre e pela nossa experiência em contextos similares.
Através de um experimento constituído por quatro ciclo de estudo-teste, demonstramos que a
manutenção do contexto de recuperação contribui para a adaptação das estratégias de
codificação, que é evidenciada quando o contexto da recuperação é alterado. Os resultados
revelam assim que, ao longo dos testes, o desempenho melhora quando os participantes
identificam a mesma categoria social (sexo ou idade) das pessoas-alvo que disseram frases
neutras nas fases de estudo, piorando quando no quarto teste existe a necessidade de
identificar a categoria social irrelevante até então. Os dados obtidos evidenciam que o
desempenho melhora ao longo de testes onde as pistas contextuais se mantêm congruentes,
piorando quando as pistas contextuais são incongruentes com a expectativa e aprendizagem
do contexto decorrentes das experiências de teste anteriores. A utilização de vários ciclos de
estudo-teste permitiu evidenciar a capacidade dos indivíduos otimizarem as suas estratégias
de codificação de forma adaptativa, ao apreenderem a estrutura do contexto.
In the present study we propose that social information processing is influenced by the context in which it occurs and by our experience in similar contexts. In a experiment composed by four study-test cycles, we show that the maintenance of the retrieval context contributes to the adaptation of the encoding strategies, which are evidenced when the retrieval context changes. The results show that, across tests, the performance improves when the participants identify the same social category (sex or age) of the target-subjects who said neutral phrases in the previous study phases, decreasing when, in the fourth test, there is a need to identify the social category that had been irrelevant until then. The obtained data showed that performance improved along the tests when the contextual cues remained congruent, decreasing when the contextual cues were incongruent with the expectations and with the context and expectations created by previous test experiences. The utilization of several study-test cycles allowed us to evince the participants’ capacity to optimize their encoding strategies in an adaptive way, by apprehending the context structure.
