Assumptions behind scoring source and item memory impact on conclusions about memory
In our recent article in the journal Cortex (Cooper, Greve, & Henson, 2017), we examined memory for source and item information using data from two different source monitoring paradigms and six different groups of participants....

Interview with Richard Dinning
Richard Dinning
Jan 01, 0001
In his October 17, 2012 interview with Robert Ryals, Richard Dinning (1922-2022) details his thoughts and memories as an Army Air Corps cadet at Winthrop. Dinning includes details of his career in the Army Air Corp during...

Does Hemispheric Asymmetry Reduction in Older Adults in Motor Cortex Reflect Compensation?
Older adults tend to display greater brain activation in the nondominant hemisphere during even basic sensorimotor responses. It is debated whether this hemispheric asymmetry reduction in older adults (HAROLD) reflects a...

The Hippocampal Film Editor
The function of the human hippocampus is normally investigated by experimental manipulation of discrete events. Less is known about what triggers hippocampal activity during more naturalistic, continuous experience. We...

Investigating Fast Mapping Task Components
Fast mapping (FM) is an incidental learning process that is hypothesized to allow rapid, cortical-based memory formation, independent of the normal, hippocampally dependent episodic memory system. It is believed to underlie the...

Neural Differentiation of Incorrectly Predicted Memories.
Frequently experiencing an item in a specific context leads to the prediction that this item will occur when we encounter the same context in future. However, this prediction sometimes turns out to be incorrect, and recent...

Knowledge is power
Events that conform to our expectations, that is, are congruent with our world knowledge or schemas, are better remembered than unrelated events. Yet events that conflict with schemas can also be remembered better. We examined...

State and Trait Components of Functional Connectivity
Resting-state functional connectivity, as measured by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), is often treated as a trait, used, for example, to draw inferences about individual differences in cognitive function, or...

Reconsidering the Imaging Evidence Used to Implicate Prediction Error as the Driving Force behind Learning.
In this paper, we review the evidence that learning is driven by signaling of Prediction Error [PE] by some neurons. We model associative learning in artificial neural networks using Hebbian (non-PE) learning algorithms to...

Selectively Interfering With Intrusive but Not Voluntary Memories of a Trauma Film
Intrusive memories of a traumatic event can be reduced by a subsequent interference procedure, seemingly sparing voluntary memory for that event. This selective-interference effect has potential therapeutic benefits (e.g., for...

Recent advances in functional neuroimaging analysis for cognitive neuroscience.
Functional magnetic resonance imaging and electro-/magneto-encephalography are some of the main neuroimaging technologies used by cognitive neuroscientists to study how the brain works. However, the methods for analysing the...

Program for the Stage Production Richard III
ProTheatre Club
Jan 01, 0001
This four-page program details the ProTheatre of Ursinus College's production of "Richard III," held March 1 to March 6, 1976 in the Bearpit theater. It includes information regarding the casting and production crew.

Neural evidence for age-related differences in representational quality and strategic retrieval processes.
Mounting behavioral evidence suggests that declines in both representational quality and controlled retrieval processes contribute to episodic memory decline with age. The present study sought neural evidence for age-related...

Response to commentaries on our review of Fast Mapping in adults.
We thank all the commentators for their thoughts on our review of Fast Mapping (FM) in adults, where we questioned the evidence that FM is a distinct learning mechanism, and urged caution over the excitement generated by the...

Map-Like Representations of an Abstract Conceptual Space in the Human Brain.
Much of higher cognition involves abstracting away from sensory details and thinking conceptually. How do our brains learn and represent such abstract concepts? Recent work has proposed that neural epresentations in the medial...

Little evidence for Fast Mapping (FM) in adults
Conventional memory theory proposes that the hippocampus is initially responsible for encoding new information, before this responsibility is gradually transferred to the neocortex. Therefore, a report in 2011 by Sharon et al....
