Abstract
We investigated the influence of emotional arousal on temporal order memory using naturalistic stimuli. Participants were randomly assigned to watch either a high or low arousal video, followed by an order reconstruction task. Our results show that participants have better order memory in the high arousal condition (p< .0001).
