Abstract
In a series of preregistered experiments using a novel multi-day paradigm, we test whether consolidated memories of naturalistic events acquire a different affective tone if new, emotion-laden information is presented upon retrieval. Results indicate memory valence can change as long as the new information is related to the original memory.
