Remembering Exhibits at Museums of Art, Science, and Sport: A Longitudinal Study
The present study examined adults' memories of exhibits in museums that they had visited. Exhibit memories were assessed at three sites: the Ontario Science Centre, the Hockey Hall of Fame and the Art Gallery of Ontario. Participants were asked to choose two exhibits they found interesting, and they received similar semi-structured interviews about them, at the time of the initial visit and then one month later (Science Centre) or five months later (other sites). Participants retained stable episodic memories of the exhibits they chose, regardless of exhibit type, and independently of whether or not they had discussed the exhibit in detail with the interviewer at the first interview. As to change in semantic memory (broadly defined), for some visitors the memories were enhanced between the initial and follow-up interview, for some they remained stable, and for others they deteriorated. Autobiographical memories were reported by about half of the visitors at the Hockey Hall and Art Gallery both on-site and at follow-up (not tested at the Science Centre). Enjoyment was the most common affective response reported at all sites at both interview times. Visitors from all sites described engaging in post-visit exploration activities, for instance talking to someone else about an exhibit. Visitor characteristics of personal interest and domain knowledge of the topic were not robustly associated with memory measures. Differences in the findings across museums were interpreted in terms either of self-orientation which emphasizes affective responses, or stimulus-orientation which emphasizes cognitive responses. Visits to the Hockey Hall tended to evoke self-oriented memories, visits to the Art Gallery tended to evoke stimulus-oriented memories, and visits to the Science Centre tended to evoke both self- and stimulus-oriented memories. These patterns of memory suggest that museum exhibits have varied influences on visitors, including helping them to define their personal identities.
