    Although many studies have examined the effect of emotion on item memory for pictures, the evidence is scanty on the effect of emotion on source memory for them. In this study, participants learned a list of neutral, positive, and negative pictures, and then took tests for item and source memory. We found that emotion did not affect accuracy of item memory; however, positive emotion enhanced subjective feeling of remembering. Both positive and negative emotions reduced source memory, which is consistent with some previous studies. The findings suggest that emotion have differential effects on item and source memory, and have some implications for evaluating eyewitness testimony.
