Distinctions between spatial and verbal working memory: a study using event-related potentials.

29 Jun 2009 BACKGROUND: The main manifestation of dementia is a defect in working memory. N-back tasks are frequently used in research on working memory. Researchers can study differences between different loadings by controlling N factors. Furthermore, the ...

Cellular Nonlinear Networks for the emergence of perceptual states: application to robot navigation control.

29 Jun 2009 In this paper a new general purpose perceptual control architecture, based on nonlinear neural lattices, is presented and applied to solve robot navigation tasks. Insects show the ability to react to certain stimuli with simple reflexes, using ...

Gravity dependence of subjective visual vertical variability.

29 Jun 2009 The brain integrates sensory input from the otolith organs, the semicircular canals, and the somatosensory and visual systems to determine self-orientation relative to gravity. Only the otoliths directly sense the gravito-inertial force vector and ...

Models for the extrapolation of target motion for manual interception.

29 Jun 2009 Intercepting a moving target requires a prediction of the target's future motion. This extrapolation could be achieved using sensed parameters of the target motion, e.g., its position and velocity. However, the accuracy of the prediction would be ...

Auditory spatial tuning at the crossroads of the midbrain and forebrain.

29 Jun 2009 The barn owl's midbrain and forebrain contain neurons tuned to sound direction. The spatial receptive fields of these neurons result from sensitivity to combinations of interaural time (ITD) and level (ILD) differences over a broad frequency range. ...

Rehabilitation approaches to hemineglect.

29 Jun 2009 BACKGROUND: Hemineglect is a difficult neurologic condition to rehabilitate. It arises predominantly from right brain injury, and manifests heterogeneously in clinical deficits such as poor visual exploration to the left, inaccurate assessment of ...

Examining the effects of two factors on working memory maintenance of bound information in schizophrenia.

29 Jun 2009 Integrating information in space and time is a central feature of episodic memory. Although disturbance of the binding processes in episodic memory is well established in patients with schizophrenia, data on working memory (WM) remain discrepant. In ...

Is there a geometric module for spatial orientation? Insights from a rodent navigation model.

29 Jun 2009 Modern psychological theories of spatial cognition postulate the existence of a geometric module for reorientation. This concept is derived from experimental data showing that in rectangular arenas with distinct landmarks in the corners, disoriented ...

Resveratrol protects spatial learning in middle-aged C57BL/6 mice from effects of ethanol.

29 Jun 2009 Spatial learning and memory have been shown to be especially vulnerable to aging and alcohol consumption. However, moderate consumption of wine has been linked to decreases in incidences of dementia. Resveratrol, a phytoestrogen found in wine, has ...

Absence of overshadowing between a landmark and geometric cues in a distinctively shaped environment: a test of Miller and Shettleworth (2007).

29 Jun 2009 Rats in the first 2 experiments, which were designed to test predictions from a model of spatial learning by N. Y. Miller and S. J. Shettleworth (2007), had to escape from a triangular pool by swimming to a submerged platform in a geometrically ...
