嗅觉记忆
Content Review
Follow your nose
---- Smell always triggers more memories than any other senses. Lanra Spinnery set up a new experiment to draw on the link to help treat psychological conditions
A There are conflicting views about "aromatherapy". Some people think it is good for our health and cure of diseases. Others insist the smell can play a role only when people
believe it. But scientists only agree on the treatment of animals.
B Rachel Herz's experiment: by perfume, one of women subjects recalls her mother. It proves smell can trigger certain memories. But it can't help us to remember details clearly.
C This is not surprising. The reason: the part of brain which controls the smell is the same one which controls the emotions.
D Confronting the different ideas, Eric Vermetten's experiment checked unreliable evidence about flashback. The conclusion is that the smell does trigger fear responses.
E Vertmetten continued to carry on another experiment: PTSD ( a kind of patients) are provided with coffee to stimulate their memories. It proves the pleasant smell is better
armed against the flashback. But nobody knows the reasons.
F Herz insists the problem of smell les in their unreliaillty. People are often tricked by smell. People tend to depend upon seeing and hearing. Oenology study by another
scientist confirms that.
G Jay Cottried and Ray Dolan's experiment: people can identily or remember sth faster when smell and proper pictures show them together. Herz holds the same ideas.
