It has been suggested that object recognition in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) may be strongly influenced both by image format (e.g. colour vs. line-drawn) and by low-level visual impairments. To examine these notions, we tested basic ...

Why the brain talks to itself: sources of error in emotional prediction.
10 May 2009 People typically choose pleasure over pain. But how do they know which of these their choices will entail? The brain generates mental simulations (previews) of future events, which produce affective reactions (premotions), which are then used as a ...

Mental time travel and the shaping of the human mind.
10 May 2009 Episodic memory, enabling conscious recollection of past episodes, can be distinguished from semantic memory, which stores enduring facts about the world. Episodic memory shares a core neural network with the simulation of future episodes, enabling ...

Inferences about mental states.
10 May 2009 Human social cognition relies on an ability to predict what others will think, feel or do in novel situations. Research in social neuroscience has consistently observed several brain regions that contribute ubiquitously to these abilities, including ...

Imagining predictions: mental imagery as mental emulation.
10 May 2009 We argue that the primary function of mental imagery is to allow us to generate specific predictions based upon past experience. All imagery allows us to answer 'what if' questions by making explicit and accessible the likely consequences of being ...

The construction system of the brain.
10 May 2009 The ability to construct a hypothetical situation in one's imagination prior to it actually occurring may afford greater accuracy in predicting its eventual outcome. The recollection of past experiences is also considered to be a reconstructive ...

On the nature of medial temporal lobe contributions to the constructive simulation of future events.
10 May 2009 A rapidly growing number of studies indicate that imagining or simulating possible future events depends on much of the same neural machinery as does remembering past events. One especially striking finding is that the medial temporal lobe (MTL), ...

Facilitation of motor imagery through movement-related cueing.
May 2009 In the past few years, the use of motor imagery as an adjunct to other forms of training has been studied extensively. However, very little attention has been paid to how imagery could be used to greatest effect. It is well known that the provision ...

Metamemory development: understanding the role of similarity in false memories.
29 Apr 2009 Research on the development of metamemory has focused primarily on children's understanding of the variables that influence how likely a person is to remember something. But metamemory also involves an understanding of why people occasionally ...
