The formation of recent and remote memory is associated with time-dependent formation of dendritic spines in the hippocampus and anterior cingulate cortex.

22 Jun 2009 Although hippocampal-cortical interactions are crucial for the formation of enduring declarative memories, synaptic events that govern long-term memory storage remain mostly unclear. We present evidence that neuronal structural changes, i.e., ...

Searching for targets within the spatial layout of visual short-term memory.

22 Jun 2009 Recent studies have revealed that the internal representations that we construct from the environment and maintain in visual short-term memory (VSTM) to guide behavior are highly flexible and can be selectively modulated according to our task goals ...

Visual salience affects performance in a working memory task.

22 Jun 2009 Many studies of bottom-up visual attention have focused on identifying which features of a visual stimulus render it salient--i.e., make it "pop out" from its background--and on characterizing the extent to which salience predicts eye movements ...

Memory functioning in developmental dyslexia: an analysis using two clinical memory measures.

21 Jun 2009 The goals of this project were threefold: to determine the nature of the memory deficit in children/adolescents with dyslexia, to utilize clinical memory measures in this endeavor, and to determine the extent to which semantic short-term memory ...

Glimpses of a one-speed mind: focus-switching and search for verbal and visual, and easy and difficult items in working memory.

21 Jun 2009 We investigated focus-switching and search rates in an N-Back task for stimuli presumably encoded either in a phonological/semantic or an abstract-visual format. Experiment 1 used Chinese characters and tested Chinese speakers and non-Chinese ...

Unique and persistent individual patterns of brain activity across different memory retrieval tasks.

19 Jun 2009 Fourteen subjects were scanned in two fMRI sessions separated by several months. During each session, subjects performed an episodic retrieval task, a semantic retrieval task, and a working memory task. We found that 1) despite extensive ...

Proactive control and episodic binding in context processing effects.

19 Jun 2009 Decision making often involves using prior contextual information to evaluate relevant events. A laboratory equivalent of context processing situations, the AX-Continuous Performance Task (AX-CPT), yields errors when a target probe appears in a ...

Catechol-O-methyltransferase valine(158)methionine polymorphism modulates brain networks underlying working memory across adulthood.

15 Jun 2009 BACKGROUND: Cognitive abilities decline with age with large individual variability. Genetic variations have been suggested to be an important source for some of this heterogeneity. Among these variations, those related to the dopaminergic system, ...

Investigating the childhood development of working memory using sentences: new evidence for the growth of chunk capacity.

15 Jun 2009 Child development is accompanied by a robust increase in immediate memory. This may be due to either an increase in the number of items (chunks) that can be maintained in working memory or an increase in the size of those chunks. We tested these ...

Differential associations between brain 5-HT(1A) receptor binding and response to pain versus touch.

15 Jun 2009 We studied whether brain serotonin 5-HT(1A) receptor availability is associated with response to noxious heat versus tactile stimuli, and short-term memory for heat pain. Psychophysical performance was assessed in 16 healthy subjects who had ...
