A systematic review of skills transfer after surgical simulation training.

30 Jul 2008 OBJECTIVE: To determine whether skills acquired by simulation-based training transfer to the operative setting. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: The fundamental assumption of simulation-based training is that skills acquired in simulated settings are ...

A comparison of adjusted spaced retrieval versus a uniform expanded retrieval schedule for learning a name-face association in older adults with probable Alzheimer's disease.

30 Jul 2008 We compared the efficacy of two memory training schedules, adjusted spaced retrieval and uniform expanded retrieval, for learning a name-face association in 12 older adults with probable Alzheimer's disease (AD). Nine training sessions were ...

Noninvasive brain stimulation improves language learning.

30 Jul 2008 Anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a reliable technique to improve motor learning. We here wanted to test its potential to enhance associative verbal learning, a skill crucial for both acquiring new languages in healthy ...

Temporal and spatial control following bilateral versus unilateral training.

15 Jul 2008 Principles of motor control and learning such as bilateral coordination and task-specificity, are increasingly incorporated in the design of upper extremity rehabilitation protocols for stroke survivors. Yet most studies investigating the efficacy ...

Dopamine D1 and D2 receptors in the nucleus accumbens core and shell mediate Pavlovian-instrumental transfer.

12 Jul 2008 Pavlovian stimuli previously paired with food can markedly elevate the rate of food-reinforced instrumental responding. This effect, termed Pavlovian-instrumental transfer (PIT), depends both on general activating and specific cueing properties of ...

Occasion setting in Pavlovian ambiguous target discriminations.

8 Jul 2008 Rats were trained in a Pavlovian serial ambiguous target discrimination, in which a target cue was reinforced if it was preceded by one stimulus (P-->T+) but was not reinforced if it was preceded by another stimulus (N-->T-). Test performance ...

Reach adaptation: what determines whether we learn an internal model of the tool or adapt the model of our arm?

30 Jun 2008 We make errors when learning to use a new tool. However, the cause of error may be ambiguous: is it because we misestimated properties of the tool or of our own arm? We considered a well-studied adaptation task in which people made goal-directed ...

Attentional, associative, and configural mechanisms in extinction.

29 Jun 2008 The participation of attentional and associative mechanisms in extinction, spontaneous recovery, external disinhibition, renewal, reinstatement, and reacquisition was evaluated through computer simulations with an extant computational model of ...

Common control by compound samples in conditional discriminations.

29 Jun 2008 We tested whether teaching control by single stimulus samples in conditional discriminations would result in common control of two-stimuli compound samples, and vice versa. In Experiment 1, 5 participants were first taught four single-sample ...

A mental practice superiority effect: less retroactive interference and more transfer than physical practice.

29 Jun 2008 Two experiments explored the benefits to retention and transfer conferred by mental practice. During familiarization, participants typed 4-digit numbers and took an immediate typing test on both old and new numbers. Participants then typed old ...
