Learning to ignore: acquisition of sustained attentional suppression.

30 Mar 2009 We examined whether the selection mechanisms committed to the suppression of ignored stimuli can be modified by experience to produce a sustained, rather than transient, change in behavior. Subjects repeatedly ignored the shape of stimuli, while ...

Perceptual learning in auditory temporal discrimination: no evidence for a cross-modal transfer to the visual modality.

30 Mar 2009 Perceptual learning was used to study potential transfer effects in a duration discrimination task. Subjects were trained to discriminate between two empty temporal intervals marked with auditory beeps, using a two-alternative forced choice ...

Facilitation of learning spatial relations among locations by visual cues: implications for theoretical accounts of spatial learning.

30 Mar 2009 Human participants searched in a real environment or interactive 3-D virtual environment open field for four hidden goal locations arranged in a 2 x 2 square configuration in a 5 x 5 matrix of raised bins. The participants were randomly assigned to ...

Beyond nonutilization: irrelevant cues can gate learning in probabilistic categorization.

30 Mar 2009 In probabilistic categorization, also known as multiple cue probability learning (MCPL), people learn to predict a discrete outcome on the basis of imperfectly valid cues. In MCPL, normatively irrelevant cues are usually ignored, which stands in ...

The coding and effector transfer of movement sequences.

30 Mar 2009 Three experiments utilizing a 14-element arm movement sequence were designed to determine if reinstating the visual-spatial coordinates, which require movements to the same spatial locations utilized during acquisition, results in better effector ...

On the minimization of task switch costs following long-term training.

30 Mar 2009 Flexible, context-dependent linkages between stimulus and response are fundamental to adaptive behavior. In the present article, we evaluate the limits of this flexibility by exploring the asymptotic efficiency of people's ability to switch between ...

Booster sessions enhance the long-term effectiveness of spaced retrieval in older adults with probable Alzheimer's disease.

23 Mar 2009 Six older adults with probable Alzheimer's disease (AD) were trained to recall a name-face association using the spaced retrieval technique. In this study, we retested these persons in a 6-month follow-up program. For half of the participants, three ...

Differential representation of Pavlovian-instrumental transfer by prefrontal cortex subregions and striatum.

18 Mar 2009 Environmental cues that once predicted reward can restore extinguished behavior directed toward that reward. This process may be modeled by the Pavlovian-instrumental transfer (PIT) paradigm where a previously learned Pavlovian conditioned stimulus ...

Neuroscience of learning arithmetic--evidence from brain imaging studies.

16 Mar 2009 It is widely accepted that the human brain is remarkably adaptive not only in child development, but also during adulthood. Aim of this work is to offer an overview and a systematic analysis of neuroimaging studies on the acquisition of arithmetic ...

Integrating simulated teaching/learning strategies in undergraduate nursing education.

14 Mar 2009 In this article, the results of a mixed-methods study integrating the use of simulations in a nursing theory course in order to assess students' perceptions of self-efficacy for nursing practice are presented. Nursing students in an intervention ...
