Associative Memory Processes in Schizophrenia
… in a number of domains, including episodic memory: EM). Memory for both individual items and associations between items is impaired in schizophrenia, with some indication of a more severe deficit in associative memory. Furthermore, such memory impairments have been consistently linked with …

Detecting Human Memory Processes via Bio-Signals
… to have correlations with different states of memory. In this study, we collected simultaneous pupillary, PPG, and EDA signals while participants (n=32) transitioned between several cognitive states (learning, recognition, and recall). Using this data, we propose multi-modal, machine learning …

Working Memory Processes in the Encoding of Intentions
… interest of this investigation concerned working memory functioning and cue/act discrimination during encoding of intentions. The study included manipulations of working memory and intention load to investigate the encoding processes related to prospective memory (PM). Three experiments are …

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 …

The differential effects of MDMA (ecstasy) use on executive and memory processes
… of mental set switching, response inhibition, memory updating and access to semantic memory. It was found that ecstasy users performed significantly worse than nonusers on measures of updating and access, although cocaine also emerged as an important factor in deficits in access. The …

The effects of cholinergic and dopaminergic neurons on hippocampal learning and memory processes
… and dopaminergic systems has been implicated in memory function de cits that are core pathology and associated features of several neurological disorders. However, in order to develop more effective treatments, it is crucial to better understand how different aspects of learning and memory are …

Sublexical, lexical and phonological short-term memory processes: Evaluating models of speech perception and short-term memory
The current research examined the processes involved in speech perception and the relation of speech perception to phonological short-term memory (pSTM). Contrary to traditional models which assume that sublexical processing necessarily precedes lexical processing (e.g., McClelland & Elman, 1986; …

The role of memory processes and quality of lexical representations in native and non-native reading comprehension
This dissertation investigated what memory mechanisms support parsing and how they constrain sentence comprehension during first-language (L1) and second-language (L2) sentence reading. Although two memory-based accounts in sentence processing research, the capacity-based model (Just & Carpenter, …

Memory, Amnesia, and the Hippocampal System: The Time Course and Neural Substrates of Relational (Declarative) Memory
… these findings indicate that relational memory processes occur early and spontaneously, and are critically dependent upon the hippocampus, consistent with and extending the relational memory theory.

An Investigation of Episodic Memory Performance in Relation to Inflammation in Children with Sickle Cell Disease
… other neurological event are lacking. Systemic processes that occur in SCD, like chronic inflammation and hypoxia, have been associated with hippocampal damage and episodic memory deficits in a range of clinical populations and animal models. However, studies examining episodic memory …

Behavioural and Neuronal Correlates of Long-term Contextual Memory for Cocaine: Relevance to Craving and Relapse
… related to the maintenance of long-term memory for drug-associated contexts are addressed: (1) Are Pavlovian conditioned associations between cocaine experience and the context in which it occurred maintained in long-term memory after extended periods of abstinence? (2) Are regions of the …

Age-related impairments in memory and in cholinergic signaling due to reduced blood glucose responses to epinephrine
Memory impairments accompany aging and can range in severity from mild deficits during healthy aging to debilitating conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease. The causes of these impairments are generally viewed in terms of anatomical, chemical, and physiological changes within the brain. However, …

Network Effect on Teams, Team Processes, and Performance
… the emergence and development of important team processes. This research focuses on indicators of a team’s transactive memory processes. Through the use of text analysis and natural language processing (NLP) techniques, we illustrate how teams become more efficient in their work processes and …

The relationship between sleep and memory in PTSD
… to the formation of memories. Successful memory consolidation during sleep is contingent on the presence of slowwave sleep (SWS), REM sleep and the successful transition of stages across the night. In PTSD, both sleep and memory processes are disrupted, but no previous study has examined …

Mood and memory : explantaions and exploration
… control participants were investigated for three memory processes: mood-dependent memory, mood-congruent memory and autobiographical memory perception. Fifty-eight participants generated six autobiographical memories after receiving a positive mood induction and rated them in a number of ways. …

Typical PM targets are not typically better than atypical PM targets: Underlying mechanisms of Prospective Memory retrieval
… 1995) and the preparatory attentional and memory processes theory: PAM; Smith, 2003). Discrepancy was manipulated by mismatching the actual and the expected category typicality of PM targets while familiarity was manipulated by the category typicality of PM targets alone. Consistent with …
