  1. The object memory refers to participants’ memory performance for neutral objects learned with positive, negative or neutral backgrounds. The associative valence refers to memory for whether each neutral object was associated with a positive, negative or neutral background. The background memory concerns memory performance for the details of the background image associated with each neutral object46. The d′ scores are used for the object and associative valence memory. The proportion of correct gist memories is used for the background memory measure. Means with different subscript letters were statistically different (p < 0.05) according to pairwise comparisons with Bonferroni correction.
