Medial temporal lobe activity during retrieval of semantic memory is related to the age of the memory.

26 Jan 2009 We measured brain activity using event-related fMRI as participants recalled answers to 160 questions about news events that had occurred during the past 30 years. Guided by earlier findings from patients with damage limited to the hippocampus who ...

Free recall and learning of emotional word lists in very elderly people with and without dementia.

24 Jan 2009 An emotional memory advantage has been found across the life span where recall is better for emotional (as opposed to neutral) stimuli. Our goal was to design emotionally valent word lists for easy use by practitioners and to test whether demented ...

Neural correlates of episodic and semantic memory retrieval in borderline personality disorder: an fMRI study.

24 Jan 2009 Verbal memory impairment in borderline personality disorder (BPD) is still a matter of debate. In this study we combine investigations of both, memory retrieval as well as underlying neural circuits in BPD. Functional magnetic resonance imaging ...

Neurobehavioral characteristics of children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

20 Jan 2009 This study investigated cognitive, metacognitive, and psychosocial aspects of neurobehavioral functioning in 22 boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and 18 unaffected siblings, all between the ages of 6 and 16 years. Probands and siblings ...

Cross-linguistic relations between quantifiers and numerals in language acquisition: evidence from Japanese.

19 Jan 2009 A study of 104 Japanese-speaking 2- to 5-year-olds tested the relation between numeral and quantifier acquisition. A first study assessed Japanese children's comprehension of quantifiers, numerals, and classifiers. Relative to English-speaking ...

Age of acquisition affects early orthographic processing during Chinese character recognition.

19 Jan 2009 Three experiments investigated age of acquisition (AoA) effects on early orthographic processing during Chinese character recognition. In Experiment 1, we measured the accuracy of identification of brief masked characters, accuracy was higher for ...

Cognitive function in breast cancer survivors compared to healthy age- and education-matched women.

18 Jan 2009 The cognitive function of breast cancer survivors (BC, n = 52) and individually matched healthy controls (n = 52) was compared on a battery of sensitive neuropsychological tests. The BC group endorsed significantly higher levels of subjective memory ...

Impaired regional hemodynamic response in schizophrenia during multiple prefrontal activation tasks: a two-channel near-infrared spectroscopy study.

18 Jan 2009 In schizophrenia, dysfunction of the prefrontal cortex (PFC), regarded as a core feature of the disease, has been investigated by different neuroimaging methods. Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), a novel neurophysiological method, is being ...

Intact spectral but abnormal temporal processing of auditory stimuli in autism.

14 Jan 2009 The perceptual pattern in autism has been related to either a specific localized processing deficit or a pathway-independent, complexity-specific anomaly. We examined auditory perception in autism using an auditory disembedding task that required ...

Do early nouns refer to kinds or distinct shapes? Evidence from 10-month-old infants.

14 Jan 2009 What is the nature of early words? Specifically, do infants expect words for objects to refer to kinds or to distinct shapes? The current study investigated this question by testing whether 10-month-olds expect internal object properties to be ...
