- Abstract
This study examined the influence of an average daily viewing time of short videos on viewers’ visual short-term memory. Participants were asked to either watch short videos or rest before taking a secondary pattern recognition task that tests their visual short-term memory. Results showed that the participants’ ability to memorize patterns and respond quickly was significantly impaired by short video watching behaviors. We conclude that short videos do have a negative impact on visual short-term memory, yet its mechanisms were not thoroughly investigated in this study.
