The present study investigated the effects of two kinds of arousal on memory search. UWIST Mood Adjective Checklist (UMACL; Matthews, Jones & Chamberlain, 1990) was translated into Japanese and its reliability was tested. A factor analysis confirmed that Japanese version of UMACL (JUMACL) measures dimensions of energetic arousal and tense arousal. A Sternberg's type-memory search experiment was done to assess the effects of individual difference in energetic and tense arousal on slope and intercept of function of set size on reaction time. While high energetic arousal group showed significantly smaller slope of memory set size function than low energetic arousal group, no difference of intercept was between them. Tense arousal had no significant effects on slope or intercept. These findings suggest that the increase of energetic arousal promotes the matching of stimulus representation and memory representation.
