The noetic perspective and information processing

Journal Title: Roczniki Psychologiczne - Year 2014, Vol 17, Issue 1

Abstract

The aim of the present research was to investigate the cognitive representations of the noetic pers­pective (spirituality) and the influence of the activation of these representations on information processing. The article presents the results of three experiments on groups of students (N = 186), using the lexical decision task (LDT) paradigm. In two of these experiments the depth of informa­tion processing was also measured by a memory test. The typical result for LDT procedure was not confirmed - the noetic perspective did not cause faster recognition of words related to this perspec­tive. However, the activation of the noetic perspective in the condition of activated attention mani­fested itself in a better memory of noetic words and in the transfer of positive affect to related noetic objects.
