Genetic algorithms with implicit memory
… modularity, neutral evolution, explicit memory, and implicit memory. It is in the matter of implicit memory that the thesis makes the majority of its novel contributions. It is demonstrated via experimental analysis that the pre-existing techniques are deficient, and a new algorithm – the …

Implicit Memory and Online Advertisement Priming
<p>Implicit Memory research has been investigating the attentional requirements needed for something to be encoded and accessible through implicit memory. So far, previous research has produced mixed results on attentional requirements for perceptual implicit memory, some studies citing evidence …

Explicit/implicit memory performance and memory strategies in Alzheimer patients
Research has shown that implicit memory can be spared in some amnesic patients, even when explicit memory is severely impaired. In contrast, results from studies with Alzheimer patients are mixed. This investigation re-explored these latter findings in a series of experiments, many that differed …

Single-System and Dual-Process Accounts of Explicit and Implicit Memory
While some expressions of memory are accompanied by conscious awareness, others do not elicit this awareness yet still impact task performance. Theorists have long questioned whether these explicit and implicit forms of memory are governed by separate cognitive systems or a single system. There is …

The effects of normal ageing and processing style on explicit and implicit memory
Explicit memory (e.g. recognition) declines with age, but there is disagreement about whether implicit memory (e.g. priming) declines or remains intact with age. Processing style is one primary factor that may explain this discrepancy: there is evidence that ageing does not affect conceptual …

Automatic or controlled: What is the nature of the encoding processes leading to perceptual implicit memory?
… the encoding processes necessary for perceptual implicit memory (as indexed by a perceptual fluency task) are automatic or controlled was tested using the load insensitivity and intentionality criteria of Yantis and Jonides (1990). In Experiment 1, which manipulated perceptual load (1, 2, or 4 …

Jack of all trades in the era of media: multitasking and attentional influences on advertising effectiveness
… behavior can impair people’s explicit memory performance. Television advertisements thus are increasingly being regarded as a waste of money in the era of media when people are used to multitasking to avoid TV advertisements. However, recent studies indicated that the dissociation in …

Implicit abandonment distress
… has brought mental processes (including implicit processes) back into psychological science, psychodynamic theory continues to be criticized as adhering to models of psychopathology that cannot lead to testable predictions and knowledge accumulation (Hoffart & Johnson, 2017). According to …

Multiple Memory Systems in People With Schizophrenia: Possible Effect of Atypical Anti-Psychotic Medications
… of the frontal lobes. Two different tests of implicit memory, the probabilistic classification learning (PCL) and the Iowa gambling task (IGT), have been shown to rely on the dorsal striatum and the PFC, respectively. Studies have previously shown that patients with schizophrenia treated with …

Memory for Non-Focal Words
… of eye movement to the non-focal word. Memory was measured with implicit and explicit memory tests. Evidence was found to suggest implicit memory traces were created for incidentally presented non-focal items, but explicit tests showed no sign of memory.</p>

Effects of imagery on perceptual implicit tests of memory
… that imagery can promote priming on perceptual implicit memory tests. In Experiment 1, when subjects were given words during a study phase and asked to form mental images of corresponding pictures, more priming was obtained on a picture fragment identification test than from a condition in which …

Encoding Flexibility of Social Categories in Impression Formation
… primary impression formation task followed by an implicit memory task. Under low cognitive capacity, participants primed with a stereotype perceptually encoded inconsistent words to a much greater extent than consistent words. The pattern was reversed for conceptual target words. In contrast, …

Towards a hybrid model of speech prosody
… comprehension in real time and is retained in implicit memory. This dissertation addresses language processing for speech prosody. This study consists of five perception experiments that test the representation of pitch accents in memory, and directly compares memory for pitch accents to memory …

ADAM : a decentralized parallel computer architecture featuring fast thread and data migration and a uniform hardware abstraction
… multithreaded parallel programming model with implicit memory management. In other words, the spatial nature and implementation details (such as the number of processors) of a parallel machine are entirely hidden from the programmer. Compiler writers are encouraged to devise programming …

The role of memory for trauma in the development of post-traumatic stress disorder following traumatic brain injury and research portfolio
… aimed to investigate the relationship between memory for the event (as assessed by the Traumatic Memory Inventory) and reporting of PTSD symptoms in a sample of adults with mild-severe TBI (n=21). Physiological reactivity (heart rate and activity level) was recorded in order to investigate the …

Relational memory processes in adults with autism spectrum disorder
Research on memory in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) points to difficulties in memory for personal experiences (episodic memory - EM). In particular, difficulties were found for the processing of relations between units of material leaving memory for single items mostly intact. The aim of this …

Masked antipriming: a behavioral and event-related potential examination of short-term antipriming effects
Antipriming is a new implicit-memory effect of prior processing of stimuli measured as impaired identification of objects following recent encoding of other objects (e.g.,identifying a piano is impaired by having recently viewed objects that are not pianos; Marsolek et al., 2006). Antipriming …
