Associations between psychological distress, learning, and memory in spouse caregivers of older adults.

15 Sep 2009 Family caregivers of older adults experience high levels of chronic stress and psychological distress, which are known to impair cognition. Very little research, however, has assessed the impact of caregiving on key cognitive outcomes such as ... Read more...

The impact of sleep duration and subject intelligence on declarative and motor memory performance: how much is enough?

30 Aug 2009 Recent findings clearly demonstrate that daytime naps impart substantial memory benefits compared with equivalent periods of wakefulness. Using a declarative paired associates task and a procedural motor sequence task, this study examined the effect ... Read more...

Is scanning in probed order recall articulatory?

30 Aug 2009 We consider how theories of serial recall might apply to other short-term memory tasks involving recall of order. In particular, we consider the possibility that when participants are cued to recall an item at an arbitrary position in a sequence, ... Read more...
