Neural processes underpinning episodic memory
Episodic memory is the memory for our personal past experiences. Although numerous functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies investigating its neural basis have revealed a consistent and distributed network of associated brain regions, surprisingly little is known about the contributions …

Emotional processing and episodic memory.
… events is associated with particular features of episodic and autobiographical memory formation. It is inspired by Rachman’s (1980, 2001) formulation of emotional processing, and his subsequent proposals to explore the general mechanisms by which emotional disruptions are overcome. The specific …

Factors Affecting Episodic Memory Development
… present thesis investigated the development of episodic memory through middle and late childhood, and how individual differences in health and lifestyle impact this development. The first study (Chapter 2) explored the developmental patterns of episodic memory including individual content …

Episodic Memory Precision and Reality Monitoring
The current thesis sought to investigate whether or not our ability to keep track of reality known as ‘reality monitoring’ may depend on the qualitative characteristics of underlying mnemonic representations, such as the precision with which we remember details of past experiences (Johnson et al., …

Neurobiological mechanisms underlying episodic memory retrieval
… cellular and circuit mechanisms supporting episodic memory retrieval.

AI Interfaces for Augmenting Episodic Memory
Episodic memory, the memory of personal experiences, is a core component of human cognition. It functions within the neural substrate to store progress towards personal goals. Thus, it influences human behavior by enriching social interactions, forming a personal narrative, and facilitating …

Towards Stable Reinforcement Learning in Non-Episodic Tasks
… may struggle to generalize well in various non-episodic tasks, including both object manipulation and locomotion. In this thesis, we study the challenges that arise from non-episodic tasks in two settings: (1) object manipulation in the Habitat Home Assistant Benchmark (HAB) [18] and (2) …

Weaving the Past into an Imagined Future: Episodic Future Thinking Relies on Working Memory as a Cognitive Interface with Episodic Memory
… cognitive and neuroimaging evidence reveals that episodic memory and episodic future thinking (EFT) share component processes. Much less is known about the relationship between EFT and working memory (WM) processes. We hypothesized that WM capacity might provide a crucial componential cognitive …

The Role of Knowledge Accessibility in Episodic Future Thought
… events that one might encounter in the future--episodic future thought--involves the flexible: re)organization of knowledge. However, little is known about the cognitive mechanisms that guide this process. The reported studies demonstrate evidence for the role of knowledge accessibility as one …

Episodic Memory during Middle Childhood: Active vs. Passive Processing
Episodic memory refers to context based explicit memory and shows vast improvements during middle childhood. In this study, episodic encoding was manipulated using stimuli that were hypothesized to require active or passive processing. Nine to eleven-year-old children were presented with a recall …

Eye-movement investigation of relational binding in episodic memory
Submission original under an indefinite embargo labeled 'Open Access'. The submission was exported from vireo on 2024-09-16 without embargo terms

The Contribution of Semantic Structure to Retrieval From Episodic Memory.
In his classic "7, plus or minus 2" paper, Miller (1956) introduced a term to describe what he thought people do when trying to memorize lists of words or numbers. He suggested that people "chunk" small bits of information into larger sets which bear some internal order or whose members share …

Vascular Risk, Functional Connectivity, and Episodic Memory in Older Adults
… relationships among vascular risk, DMN FC, and episodic memory in older adults using FC analyses and structural equation modeling. Several regions found to be functionally related to the PCC were those identified in prior research on the DMN, but also included areas not typically implicated in …

Emotional Memory: The Effects of Temporal Pressure on Episodic Memory
<p>Priority Binding theory (MacKay et al., 2004) proposes that under temporal pressure arousing negative stimuli delay binding of neutral items presented in close temporal proximity (as in lists with mixed neutral and negative stimuli). With fast presentation rates, a subsequent negative item may …

Understanding Episodic Memory in Animals and Humans: A Methodological Approach.
… two different methodological approaches to episodic memory, namely episodic memory as demonstrated in humans and episodic-like memory as demonstrated in animals. The results of Chapter 2 were successful in demonstrating episodic-like memory in the rat using recollection alone, despite the …

Effects of episodic familiarity and statistical regularity On intentional forgetting
… experiments, this investigation examined how episodic familiarity and statistical regularity influence intentional forgetting using verbal and pictorial stimuli. In Experiment 1-4, some stimuli were familiarized by a preview phase before the DF phase, and memory was later assessed using an …

Effects of healthy ageing on the precision of episodic memory
Episodic memory decline is one of the hallmarks of human cognitive ageing, but our understanding of the neurocognitive mechanisms underlying this decline remains limited. In particular, it is unclear whether healthy ageing differentially affects distinct components of episodic memory retrieval; …
