Abstract
Subjects classified as high or low test-anxious received a standard free recall test as a direct test (explicit memory) following a stem-completion indirect test (implicit memory). As usual, anxious subjects recalled less on the direct test, but were equivalent to low-anxiety subjects on the indirect test. This seemed to be general across anxious-nonanxious words and positive-negative words. The results are consistent with a blockage view of the test anxiety deficit, whereby anxious subjects know things they may not recall on a direct test.
