How does transactive memory affect group behavior?
On May 01, 2024
Some psychologists coined the term transactive memory to refer to a process by which members of a small group remember different kinds of information. For example, when the electricity goes out and you need a candle, it helps if you can remember where the candles are. But it is almost as good if you know that your roommate remembers where they are. You do not have to remember everything yourself.
Groups are most effective when group members know about what they know and can shift responsibility for remembering to the best-suited individuals. For example, a romantic couple moving in together might start off by having the woman do the cooking because that fits traditional roles and assumptions, but as they get to know each other, they might realize that the man is more interested in food and has a better memory for recipes,so they could reallocate the role to him. In lab studies, intimate couples who worked face to face performed the best on group memory tasks. They did better than pairs of strangers and better than couples who were not face to face. The crucial difference was that by looking at each other, they could tell which of them knew the answer best.
Transactive memory begins at the learning stage, not just at the remembering stage.Groups perform better when they are trained together, in part because they can help slot people into particular roles for learning different things. That is, the group can speed its learning by figuring out who is good at what parts of the task. As a result, each person can concentrate on learning his or her specialty, rather than everyone trying to learn everything.
