Prospective Memory (PM) is the memory employed to execute future intentions under the correct circumstances (Einstein & McDaniel, 2005). Simply, it describes our ability to remember to remember. This process, while integral to our lives, frequently fails us, leading to errors in PM. However, these errors do not consist of only forgetting to do the things we planned, but also involve doing the right thing at the wrong time, and even doing the wrong thing at the right time. Errors in PM can take three distinct forms: omission errors, commission errors, and association memory errors. Omission Errors happen when we fail to follow through with our intentions (e.g., forgetting to stop at the store to pick up a requested tub of Teaberry ice-cream). Commission Errors occur when we follow through with our intended actions under the wrong circumstances (e.g., buying a usual order of Teaberry ice cream after agreeing to participate in a healthy-living contest at work). Finally, Association Memory Errors are when we respond to the correct circumstances but with the wrong action (e.g., remembering to stop at the store, but picking up Strawberry ice cream instead of the requested Teaberry flavor). These separate types of errors and their associated cognitive processes may be affected by different circumstances or stimuli. Using a two-experiment design, the current study examined the effects of pre-encoding stress, saliency, and semantic association on PM accuracy as well as omission, commission, and association memory errors. Experiment 1 investigated the effects of saliency and semantic association on individuals' propensity to make errors in PM under acute stress. In individual teleconferencing sessions, participants (N = 60) underwent an online version of the Trier Social Stress Test (TSST) before receiving instructions for a PM task embedded in an ongoing general-knowledge trivia task. The participants were instructed to respond to each of 5 PM cue words in one of two ways. The PM task employed cue words, semantically associated lure words, and non-associated words that were presented both saliently and non-saliently throughout the ongoing task. Experiment 2 expanded on Experiment 1's protocol by introducing a non-stress control group. Also, participants in Experiment 2 (N = 93) were given high-arousal and low-arousal PM cues presented both saliently and non-saliently allowing for the examination of word arousal's effect on PM performance. Experiment 1 showed that salience, semantic association, and their interaction had significant effects on PM performance. Salience increased both the frequency and speed of PM responses. However, while omission errors decreased for salient cues, participants also made more commission errors on salient non-cue words. Semantic association affected commission errors, as participants made more commission errors on semantically associated lures than on non-associated words. Additionally, an interaction was found such that salience had a greater effect on semantically associated lures than on non-associates. In Experiment 2, pre-encoding stress and salience significantly affected PM responding. Pre-encoding stress was beneficial to PM performance, as increases in overall accuracy were driven by a decrease in association memory errors. For salience, the findings in Experiment 1 were replicated, as salience increased both PM accuracy on cues and commission errors. Taken together, the findings show that the circumstances under which we make plans for the future (i.e., stressful or calm), as well as characteristics of the intentions we plan to carry out and cues we encounter, influence the frequency and type of PM errors we commit.
