Emotions, Commitment and Effectiveness of the Government’ s Remembrance Policy. Results of an Experimental Study The paper presents results of the experimental study on the role of commitment and emotions in an influence of remembrance narratives. It offers brief theoretical introduction to the government’ s remembrance policy and its main features and then it compares these hypotheses with experimental observations. The study shows how manipulations of commitment and emotions influence memorization of information, change of attitudes towards the remembrance and behavior in real-life. Moreover, the paper discusses results of participant’ s self-assessment after an exposition to a narrative and their evaluation of its contents. As the result, theoretical considerations and research results enabled authors to present final conclusions and to state five new theoretical hypotheses on the impact of commitment and emotions on the effectiveness of remembrance story-telling.

The paper presents results of the experimental study on the government’s remembrance policy, attitudes towards it, and the influence of remembrance narratives. It discusses individual differences of participants on three different grounds: (1) interest in history or politics, and level of historical knowledge, (2) features of cognitive motivation measured by the need for closure questionnaire: preference of order, desire for predictability, discomfort with ambiguity, closed mindedness and decisiveness, and (3) response to the presented narrative, including inspired emotions and an assessment of a story. Collected data and research observations offer an interesting and valuable insight into relationships between various factors and citizen’s support for the remembrance policy. They also lead the team to formulate three conclusions which may be used to develop theoretical understandings of this aspect of politics within political science and related disciplines.

The paper presents the preliminary results of the interdisciplinary study on the influence of the government's remembrance policy. The key aspect of the project was a measurement of 364 students' attitudes towards management of collective memory in laboratory conditions. Its objective was a diagnosis of Polish youth's disposition to the management of collective memory by a state, but also a measurement of attitude change resulting from a narrative (which imitated the remembrance policy). The paper discusses general results of the study and three aspects of attitudes: cognitive, emotional and behavioral. It presents both results from the first measurement and effects of emotions' and commitment's manipulation. Collected data was used to formulate four research conclusions which consider attitudes towards the government's remembrance policy, their change and their relevance to a question on the distribution of influence between a government and a civil society.
