Consolidation during sleep of perceptual learning of spoken languageKimberly M Fenn
Department of Psychology, The University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois 60637, USA
Nature 425:614-6. 2003..Performance recovery indicates that representations and mappings associated with generalization are refined and stabilized during sleep...
Consolidating the effects of waking and sleep on motor-sequence learningTimothy P Brawn
Department of Psychology, University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois 60637, USA
J Neurosci 30:13977-82. 2010..These observations indicate that current theories of memory consolidation that have been formulated to explain sleep-dependent performance enhancements are insufficient to explain the range of behavioral changes associated with sleep...
Consolidation of sensorimotor learning during sleepTimothy P Brawn
Department of Psychology, University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois 60637, USA
Learn Mem 15:815-9. 2008..Performance improved with training, decreased following waking retention, but recovered and stabilized following sleep. These results extend the domain of sleep-dependent consolidation to more complex, adaptive behaviors...
Recursive syntactic pattern learning by songbirdsTimothy Q Gentner
Department of Organismal Biology and Anatomy, University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois 60637, USA
Nature 440:1204-7. 2006..Thus, the capacity to classify sequences from recursive, centre-embedded grammars is not uniquely human. This finding opens a new range of complex syntactic processing mechanisms to physiological investigation...
Reduced false memory after sleepKimberly M Fenn
Department of Psychology, Michigan State University, East Lansing, Michigan 48824, USA
Learn Mem 16:509-13. 2009..These experiments are the first to show that false memories can be reduced following sleep, and they extend the benefits of sleep to include increased accuracy of episodic memory...
When less is heard than meets the ear: change deafness in a telephone conversationKimberly M Fenn
Department of Psychology, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI 48824, USA
Q J Exp Psychol (Hove) 64:1442-56. 2011..Conversational expectations may shape the way we direct attention to voice characteristics and perceive differences in voice...
