The reminder of a previously-learned memory can render that memory vulnerable to disruption or change in expression. Such memory alterations have been viewed as supportive of the framework of memory reconsolidation. However, alternative interpretations and inconsistencies in the replication of fundamental findings have raised questions particularly in the domain of human declarative memory. Here we present a series of related experiments, all of which involve the learning of a declarative memory, followed 1–2 days later by memory reminder. Post-reminder learning of interfering material did result in modulation of subsequent recall at test, but the precise manifestation of that interference effect differed across experiments. With post-reminder performance of a visuospatial task, a quantitative impairment in test recall performance was observed within a visual list-learning paradigm, but not in a foreign vocabulary learning paradigm. These results support the existence of reminder-induced memory processes that can lead to the alteration of subsequent memory performance by interfering tasks. However, it remains unclear whether these effects are reflective of modulation or impairment of the putative memory reconsolidation process.
