The learning of two similar complex movement sequences: does practice insulate a sequence from interference?

15 Jul 2008 Panzer et al. [Panzer, S., Wilde, H., & Shea, C. H. (2006). The learning of two similar complex movement sequences: Proactive and retroactive effects on learning. Journal of Motor Behavior, 38, 60-70] found evidence to indicate that the memory ...

Rodent models of serial reaction time tasks and their implementation in neurobiological research.

13 Jul 2008 Since the late eighties of the last century, when the so-called serial reaction time (SRT) task was first presented, analysis of sequential learning and performance has developed into a prosperous area of neurocognitive research in human subjects ...

Chronic nicotine improves cognitive performance in a test of attention but does not attenuate cognitive disruption induced by repeated phencyclidine administration.

9 Jul 2008 RATIONALE: Nicotine-induced cognitive enhancement may be a factor maintaining tobacco smoking, particularly in psychiatric populations suffering from cognitive deficits. Schizophrenia patients exhibit higher smoking rates compared with the general ...

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 ...

Effect of parental family history of Alzheimer's disease on serial position profiles.

29 Jun 2008 BACKGROUND: An exaggerated recency effect (ie, disproportionate recall of last-presented items) has been consistently observed in the word list learning of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Our study sought to determine whether there were ...

Investigation of potential cognitive tests for use with older adults in audiology clinics.

29 Jun 2008 BACKGROUND: Cognitive declines in working memory and processing speed are hallmarks of aging. Deficits in speech understanding also are seen in aging individuals. A clinical test to determine whether the cognitive aging changes contribute to aging ...

Directed forgetting and aging: the role of retrieval processes, processing speed, and proactive interference.

29 Jun 2008 The directed forgetting effect obtained with the item method is supposed to depend on both selective rehearsal of to-be-remembered (TBR) items and attentional inhibition of to-be-forgotten (TBF) items. In this study, we investigated the locus of the ...

Rapid serial processing in patients with multiple sclerosis: the role of peripheral deficits.

29 Jun 2008 This study compared speed of information processing in patients with relapsing-remitting or secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (MS) and healthy controls using the Stroop Test and a Picture Naming Test (PNT). While both tests evaluated ...

Effects of semantic relatedness on recall of stimuli preceding emotional oddballs.

29 Jun 2008 Semantic and episodic memory networks function as highly interconnected systems, both relying on the hippocampal/medial temporal lobe complex (HC/MTL). Episodic memory encoding triggers the retrieval of semantic information, serving to incorporate ...

Transfer effects in task-set cost and dual-task cost after dual-task training in older and younger adults: further evidence for cognitive plasticity in attentional control in late adulthood.

29 Jun 2008 Older adults' difficulties in performing two tasks concurrently have been well documented (Kramer & Madden, 2008). It has been observed that the age-related differences in dual-task performance are larger when the two tasks require similar motor ...
