Memory of visual and topographical features suggests spatial learning in nautilus (Nautilus pompilius L.).

30 Jul 2009 Previous studies demonstrate that soft-bodied (coleoid) cephalopods are adept at learning and remembering features of their environment, but little is known about their primitive relative, nautilus. Nautilus makes nightly migrations from deep to ...

Distance-dependent processing of pictures and words.

30 Jul 2009 A series of 8 experiments investigated the association between pictorial and verbal representations and the psychological distance of the referent objects from the observer. The results showed that people better process pictures that represent ...

Preparing for novel versus familiar events: shifts in global and local processing.

30 Jul 2009 Six experiments examined whether novelty versus familiarity influences global versus local processing styles. Novelty and familiarity were manipulated by either framing a task as new versus familiar or by asking participants to reflect upon novel ...

Embodiment of abstract concepts: good and bad in right- and left-handers.

30 Jul 2009 Do people with different kinds of bodies think differently? According to the body-specificity hypothesis, people who interact with their physical environments in systematically different ways should form correspondingly different mental ...

Retention time of attenuated response to diacetyl after pre-exposure to diacetyl in Caenorhabditis elegans.

30 Jul 2009 The retention time of attenuated chemotactic response to continuous presentation of odorant diacetyl was investigated in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. The level of chemotactic response of nematodes pre-exposed to diacetyl for 90 min was ...

Overshadowing and CS duration: counteraction and a reexamination of the role of within-compound associations in cue competition.

30 Jul 2009 In the present experiments, we examined the role of within-compound associations in the interaction of the overshadowing procedure with conditioned stimulus (CS) duration, using a conditioned suppression procedure with rats. In Experiment 1, we ...

Representations of single and compound stimuli in negative and positive patterning.

30 Jul 2009 In four experiments, rats were trained on different patterning discriminations before being tested with compounds composed of novel combinations of the trained stimuli. In Experiment 1, rats were trained on a negative-patterning schedule (A+ B+ AB-) ...

Mind the gap: binding experiences across space and time in the human hippocampus.

28 Jul 2009 A fundamental goal in memory research is to understand what class of learning problem the hippocampus is uniquely designed to solve. While much controversy surrounds the particular types of memories the hippocampus is thought to support, one ...

Past performance is indicative of future returns.

28 Jul 2009 Neuronal activity observed in response to trial outcome is hypothesized to drive learning and performance adjustment. The study by Histed et al. in this issue of Neuron observes persistent outcome-related neuronal activity lasting until the ...

Consolidation of an extinction memory depends on the unconditioned stimulus magnitude previously experienced during training.

27 Jul 2009 Here, we examine the role of the magnitude of the unconditioned stimulus (US) during classical conditioning in consolidation processes after memory retrieval. We varied the US durations during training and we test the impact of these variations on ...
