记忆增强

记忆增强是指一个人回忆或保持记忆能力的提升。它最常见于中度剂量的兴奋剂和益智药化合物（如methylphenidate、caffeine、Noopept、nicotine和modafinil）的影响下。

记忆增强是指一个人回忆或保留记忆能力的提升。¹²³⁴与日常清醒状态相比，这一效果的体验可以使人更容易以更高的细节程度访问和回忆过去的记忆。它还可以帮助人记住新信息，使其在不再受精神活性物质影响后能够更容易地被回忆起来。

记忆增强常伴随其他同时出现的效果，如分析能力增强和思维加速。它最常见于中度剂量的兴奋剂和益智药化合物的作用下，例如methylphenidate⁵、caffeine³、Noopept⁶、nicotine⁷和modafinil⁸。

类型

不同物质可以增强不同类型的记忆，且存在相当程度的重叠。一般而言，有三种类型：

长期记忆： 海量的知识储备以及对既往事件的记录。 ⁹
短期记忆：人类心智中能够暂时以易于提取的状态保存有限量信息的功能。⁹ ¹⁰ ¹¹
工作记忆： 用于规划和执行行为的信息。它与短期记忆并非完全不同，通常被视为多个成分协同工作的组合。研究发现，工作记忆的测量与智力倾向（尤其是流体智力）的相关性优于短期记忆的测量，实际上可能优于任何其他特定心理过程的测量。评估工作记忆容量时，存储和加工必须同时参与，这也使其与认知能力相关联。⁹¹⁰¹¹¹²¹³
