Controlled recall of verbal material in temporal lobe epilepsy.

13 Jan 2009 This study used a guided process-dissociation procedure to examine the contribution of controlled and automatic uses of memory to a cued-recall task in 24 patients with unilateral temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE: 12 left-sided; 12 right-sided), and 12 ...

The representation of the verb's argument structure as disclosed by fMRI.

13 Jan 2009 BACKGROUND: In the composition of an event the verb's argument structure defines the number of participants and their relationships. Previous studies indicated distinct brain responses depending on how many obligatory arguments a verb takes. The ...

The sleeping brain's influence on verbal memory: boosting resistance to interference.

5 Jan 2009 Memories evolve. After learning something new, the brain initiates a complex set of post-learning processing that facilitates recall (i.e., consolidation). Evidence points to sleep as one of the determinants of that change. But whenever a behavioral ...

Neural correlates of cued recall in young and older adults: an event-related potential study.

5 Jan 2009 This experiment investigated age differences in electrophysiological correlates of retrieval success in a word-stem cued recall task. Young adults (M+/-SD: 21.4 years+/-1.9) performed this memory task more accurately than older participants (M+/-SD: ...

Does sleep disturbance mediate neuropsychological functioning in older people with depression?

4 Jan 2009 BACKGROUND: Depression in older adults is associated with neuropsychological dysfunction, fronto-subcortical brain changes and sleep disturbance. Research suggests that adequate sleep is critical for many aspects of cognition including processing ...

Lifetime cognitive performance is associated with midlife physical performance in a prospective national birth cohort study.

3 Jan 2009 OBJECTIVES: To examine whether measures of cognitive performance across life are related to physical performance at age 53 years, allowing for potential confounders. METHODS: In a large representative British birth cohort of men and women (N = 2135) ...

An evaluation of the relative efficacy of and children's preferences for teaching strategies that differ in amount of teacher directedness.

30 Dec 2008 The manner in which teachers mediate children's learning varies across early childhood classrooms. In this study, we used a multielement design to evaluate the efficacy of three commonly implemented strategies that varied in teacher directedness for ...

Involuntary conscious memory facilitates cued recall performance: further evidence that chaining occurs during voluntary recall.

30 Dec 2008 Recent studies have shown that conscious recollection of the past occurs spontaneously when subjects voluntarily recall their own past experiences or a list of previously studied words. Naturalistic diary studies and laboratory studies of this ...

Individual strategies in artificial grammar learning.

30 Dec 2008 Artificial grammar learning (AGL) has been used extensively to study theories of learning, but compelling conclusions cannot be drawn without an analysis of individual strategies. We describe a new statistical method for doing so, based on the ...

Taboo: working memory and mental control in an interactive task.

30 Dec 2008 Individual differences in working memory (WM) predict principled variation in tasks of reasoning, response time, memory, and other abilities. Theoretically, a central function of WM is keeping task-relevant information easily accessible while ...
