Abstract: We used a reconsolidation paradigm to investigate whether emotional memories are resistant to changes after their reactivation. Results showed that those who studied negative pictures and/or reactivated this memory didn’t have fewer intrusions than those who studied neutral pictures and this indicates a good reliability of memories even after destabilization.
