Transient global amnesia (TGA) is a clinical syndrome characterized by the sudden
onset of a massive episodic memory deficit that spares other cognitive functions. As
such, it provides a unique human amnesia model for testing the enactment effect (i.e.,
better memory for performed actions than for verbally encoded sentences). Our main
aim was to test whether the enactment effect is preserved in TGA patients, both to
have a better understanding and to test the robustness of this effect in a massive
amnesia.
Object-action pairs were encoded under four conditions: verbal, experimenter-
performed, and two enacted conditions (self-performed and self-performed with choice).
We tested object-action pair retrieval using cued recall (CR) and recognition tasks, and
source memory using a free recall task. We also assessed binding, executive functions,
short-term memory, episodic memory, anxiety and mood. We run correlations to control
for their putative effects on memory for action. Data were collected from 24 patients, 16 of
whom were examined during the acute phase and eight the day-after, as well as from 18
healthy controls.
The memory performances of the patients in the acute phase improved for both i) the
CR score, between the verbal, experimenter-performed and self-performed with choice
conditions, and ii) the total recognition score, between the verbal condition and the two
enacted conditions. Correlations were found between self-performed task (SPT) enhance-
ment and both the binding and anxiety.
