The Hebb repetition effect as a laboratory analogue of novel word learning.

8 Sep 2008 The present study tests the hypothesis that a common ordering mechanism underlies both short-term serial recall of verbal materials and the acquisition of novel long-term lexical representations, using the Hebb repetition effect. In the first ...

The impact of Parkinson's disease on sequence learning: perceptual pattern learning and executive function.

8 Sep 2008 The current study examined the contribution of brain areas affected by Parkinson's disease (PD) to sequence learning, with a specific focus on response-related processes, spatial attentional control, and executive functioning. Patients with mild PD, ...

The relation of salivary cortisol to patterns of performance on a word list learning task in healthy older adults.

4 Sep 2008 A pattern of performance on a word list learning task known as a reduced primacy effect has been shown to be characteristic of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and can distinguish AD from depression. Deficits in memory and hippocampal atrophy seen in AD ...

Serial reaction time performance following right parietal lobe damage.

30 Aug 2008 The serial reaction time task (SRT) is used to assess implicit sequence learning. Neuroimaging studies implicate parietal involvement; however, the necessity of this area is unclear. We tested six unilateral right parietal patients and compared ...

Food cravings consume limited cognitive resources.

30 Aug 2008 Using Tiffany's (1990) cognitive model of drug use and craving as a theoretical basis, the present experiments investigated whether cravings for food expend limited cognitive resources. Cognitive performance was assessed by simple reaction time ...

Age differences in proactive interference, working memory, and abstract reasoning.

30 Aug 2008 It has been hypothesized that older adults are especially susceptible to proactive interference (PI) and that this may contribute to age differences in working memory performance. In young adults, individual differences in PI affect both working ...

Implicit learning of predictive relationships in three-element visual sequences by young and old adults.

30 Aug 2008 Knowledge of sequential relationships enables future events to be anticipated and processed efficiently. Research with the serial reaction time task (SRTT) has shown that sequence learning often occurs implicitly without effort or awareness. Here, ...

The role of short-term memory capacity and task experience for overconfidence in judgment under uncertainty.

30 Aug 2008 Research with general knowledge items demonstrates extreme overconfidence when people estimate confidence intervals for unknown quantities, but close to zero overconfidence when the same intervals are assessed by probability judgment. In 3 ...

How incidental sequence learning creates reportable knowledge: the role of unexpected events.

30 Aug 2008 Research on incidental sequence learning typically is concerned with the characteristics of implicit or nonconscious learning. In this article, the authors aim to elucidate the cognitive mechanisms that contribute to the generation of explicit, ...

Learning and generalization deficits in patients with memory impairments due to anterior communicating artery aneurysm rupture or hypoxic brain injury.

30 Aug 2008 Human anterograde amnesia can result from a variety of etiologies, including hypoxic brain injury and anterior communicating artery (ACoA) aneurysm rupture. Although each etiology can cause a similarly severe disruption in declarative memory for ...
