The contribution of executive control on verbal-learning impairment in patients with Parkinson's disease with dementia and Alzheimer's disease.

6 Jul 2009 Deficits in learning, memory, and executive functions are common cognitive sequelae of Parkinson's disease with dementia (PDD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD); however, the pattern of deficits within these populations is distinct. Hierarchical ...

How children block learning from ignorant speakers.

6 Jul 2009 Preschool children typically do not learn words from ignorant or unreliable speakers. Here, we examined the mechanism by which these learning failures occur by modifying the comprehension test procedure that measures word learning. Following lexical ...

Association of AKT1 with verbal learning, verbal memory, and regional cortical gray matter density in twins.

3 Jul 2009 AKT1, encoding the protein kinase B, has been associated with the genetic etiology of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. However, minuscule data exist on the role of different alleles of AKT1 in measurable quantitative endophenotypes, such as ...

Modulation of long-term memory by arousal in alexithymia: the role of interpretation.

30 Jun 2009 Moderate physiological or emotional arousal induced after learning modulates memory consolidation, helping to distinguish important memories from trivial ones. Yet, the contribution of subjective awareness or interpretation of arousal to this effect ...

[Language development, language development disorders and the brain]

29 Jun 2009 When a child comes into the world, it has - when normally developed - a brain that is perfectly equipped to learn language(s). Previous studies have shown that processing becomes faster and more efficient as time moves on, but in essence the basis ...

Modulation of medial temporal lobe activity in epilepsy patients with hippocampal sclerosis during verbal working memory.

29 Jun 2009 It has been traditionally assumed that medial temporal lobe (MTL) is not required for working memory (WM). However, animal lesion and electrophysiological studies and human neuropsychological and neuroimaging studies have provided increasing ...

Integrating experiential and distributional data to learn semantic representations.

29 Jun 2009 The authors identify 2 major types of statistical data from which semantic representations can be learned. These are denoted as experiential data and distributional data. Experiential data are derived by way of experience with the physical world and ...

Developmental and individual differences in young children's use and maintenance of a selective memory strategy.

29 Jun 2009 Children who were 4 to 8 years of age were asked to perform a sort-recall task where only half of the items had to be studied and remembered. Following a baseline trial, children were assigned to 1 of 3 groups and were prompted to use either a ...

Can imageability help us draw the line between storage and composition?

29 Jun 2009 Language requires both storage and composition. However, exactly what is retrieved from memory and what is assembled remains controversial, especially for inflected words. Here, "imageability effects" is introduced as a new diagnostic of storage and ...

A preliminary study of lateralized processing in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

29 Jun 2009 Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is associated with deficits in spatial and sustained attention processes normally linked to the right parietal and frontal lobes. However, data on lateralization changes in attention processes are ...
