The value-congruence model of memory for emotional experiences : an explanation for cultural differences in emotional self-reports . In 3 studies , the authors found support for the value-congruence model that accounts for cultural variations in memory for emotional experiences . In Study 1 , the authors found that in the made-in-the-U.S. scenario condition , European Americans were more accurate than were Asian Americans in their retrospective frequency judgments of emotions . However , in the made-in-Japan scenario condition , European Americans were less accurate than were Asian Americans . In Study 2 , the authors demonstrated that value orientation mediates the CulturexType of Event congruence effect . In Study 3 ( a daily event sampling study ) , the authors showed that the congruence effect was explained by the importance of parental approval . In sum , emotional events congruent with personal values remain in memory longer and influence retrospective frequency judgments of emotion more than do incongruent events .
