A computational model of routine procedural memory
… a connectionist approach to modeling routine procedural behavior. They argued in favor of holistic, distributed representation of learned step co-occurrence associations. Two experiments found that people can adapt routine procedural behavior to changing circumstances quite readily and that …

Is errorless learning an effective strategy for a procedural memory task?
… for the cognitive rehabilitation of people with memory impairment. This study aimed to determine whether errorless learning is an effective strategy for teaching a complex procedure. Cognitive impairment has been tentatively linked with outcome after rehabilitation for lower limb amputation. …

The influence of the trait-like tendency to rely on declarative- or procedural- like memory systems on the development of habits and compulsive behaviours in the rat
… a multi-systems organisation of long-term memory in mammals, where different types of memory are underpinned by dissociable neural systems which can operate independently of one another. A key distinction in this regard is that between declarative memory and procedural memory, which differ …

The Effects of Self-Guided Meditation and Napping on Memory Consolidation in Humans
… sleep (overnight or daytime naps) benefits memory consolidation (Diekelmann & Born, 2010; Mednick, Nakayama, & Stickgold, 2003; Plihal & Born, 1999; Walker et al., 2003). However, most investigations have employed various forms of “active wakefulness” (e.g., sensorimotor and cognitive tasks) …

The relationship between elevated night-time Glucocorticoid activity and dreaming: a perspective on sleep-dependent memory consolidation
Background. The consolidation of episodic memory is particularly vulnerable to fluctuations in glucocorticoid levels, both during wakefulness and during sleep. Corticosteroid exposure is associated with changes in endogenous glucocorticoid activity, sleep disruption, episodic memory impairment, and …

A capacity limited, cognitive constructionist model of virtual presence
… processing paths between attention, working memory, declarative memory and procedural memory, which operate to create and maintain a semantic context or bias. Bottom-up information entering the sensory cortices is filtered by attention into working memory where it forms temporary structures …

Social influences on children's learning
… relates to hippocampal-prefrontal declarative memory, but not striatal-dependent procedural memory. Finally, in Chapter 5 I demonstrate that the neural correlates of fluid reasoning differ by SES, suggesting that positive brain development varies by early life environment. Collectively, this …

Endovascular Thrombectomy Peri-Procedural Recall: A Mixed Methods Study
… characteristics and recollection of the peri-procedural endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) phase for individuals diagnosed with large vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke. Methods: A convergent mixed methods study was conducted to understand the lived experience of individuals receiving EVT intervention …

Non-Being and Memory: A Critique of Pure Difference in Derrida and Deleuze
… of a large number of contemporary memory research articles. I use these articles to support my claim that Immanuel Kant misunderstood what in the Critique of Pure Reason he labeled "affinity." Further, Jacques Derrida and Gilles Deleuze inherit this Kantian misunderstanding by way …

Eye Movement-Based Memory Assessment: The Use of Eye Movement Monitoring as an Indirect Measure of Memory
"Here, I introduce a new indirect measure of memory based on eye movement monitoring. Effects observed in eye movement data collected while participants were viewing images of faces showed that viewers process repeated items differently than novel items. Experiment 1 shows that this ""eye …

The Association between Sleep Quality and Cognitive Function in Patients with Nonfunctioning Pituitary Adenoma?s
… for overall cognitive functioning (and for memory consolidation, in particular), and (c) patients with pituitary disease (PD) experience hormonal dysregulation, impaired quality of sleep, and particular patterns of cognitive dysfunction. However, the current study is the first to examine …

Flipping the Narrative: Highlighting the Positive Aspects of Healthy Aging
… have reported age-related deficits in episodic memory, sensory perception, and fluid intelligence. These reports only add to society’s negative views of aging, which inevitably have a detrimental impact on older adults’ cognition, health, and general well-being. However, there are several other …

L'influenza del sonno sull'andamento temporale della consolidazione delle abilità procedurali
… about the possible enhancing effect of sleep on memory consolidation has focused on procedural memory (part of non-declarative memory system, according to Squire’s taxonomy), as it appears the memory sub-system for which the available data are more consistent. The acquisition of a procedural …

Can adults learn absolute pitch? Evaluating the “Melody Triggers” method
… to this view, AP develops primarily through procedural memory in childhood, whereas adult acquisition relies more heavily on explicit memory. Although adults can proceduralise pitch associations that initially require conscious retrieval, what becomes proceduralised is typically less complete …

Implizite Gedächtnisfunktionen bei transitorischer globaler Amnesie
… global amnesia, TGA, is an impairment of memory of temporary nature that is characterized by an anterograde amnesia for declarative contents. The syndrome is benign and patients recover within 24 hours without relevant remaining deficits. The main aim of this dissertation was the …
