Noise and Inattentiveness to Social Cues
Cohen, Sheldon; Lezak, Anne
Environment and Behavior, 9, 4, 559-72, Dec 77
The effects of environmental stress on the processing of task-irrelevant cues of a social nature were examined. While noise did not affect memory for the task-relevant cues, task-irrelevant cues, regardless of whether they depicted calm or distressed persons, were remembered less well under noise than under quiet.
