..These findings are discussed in relation to the processes involved in memory for temporal information...

..This study suggests that the five methods are effective for new learning of face-name associations in AD. It appears that early AD patients can learn, even in the context of error production and explicit memory conditions...

..The results further suggest that knowledge about personal goals plays an important role in structuring these event sequences, especially for the distant future...

..These findings suggest that the essence of episodic future thought-the sensation of mentally visiting one's personal future-lies, in part, in the relevance of imagined events with respect to personal goals...

..Together these findings lend support to the idea that a person's sense of self and identity is in part nourished by the anticipation of significant future events...

..These findings provide new insight into the role of the MPFC in self-representation and suggest that the ventral MPFC confers degrees of value upon the particular conception of the self that people construct at a given moment...

..This brain region may thus play a key role in creating the mental model of the self that is displayed in our mind at a given moment...

..These findings suggest that CMS may contribute to differentiate between representations of present and past selves...

..By contrast, the two groups did not differ concerning their memories for non-social events. These findings are discussed in relation to cognitive models of social phobia...

..Taken together, these findings suggest that the difference in memory between positive and negative self-referent information is due, at least in part, to a control exerted on memory retrieval...

..These findings are consistent with the view that mental time travel into the past and into the future relies on similar mechanisms...

..These findings show that self-referential processing and perspective taking recruit distinct regions of the MPFC and suggest that the left dorsal MPFC may be involved in decoupling one's own from other people's perspectives on the self...

..This evidence indicates that age-related differences in memory may depend on the nature of the to-be-remembered information, with emotional/social information being remembered as well in older as in younger adults...

..It is suggested that the affective meaning of facial expressions automatically modulates the encoding of facial identity in memory...

..On the other hand, the caudate might support more concrete simulations of action plans to achieve rewarding situations in the near future...

....

..It is concluded that biases affecting the phenomenology of autobiographical memory are part of the arsenal of psychological mechanisms people use to maintain a positive self-image...

..The implications of these findings for the understanding of the function instantiated by the default network of the brain are also discussed...

....

..This study thus provides additional evidence that facial identity and facial expression are not processed completely independently...

..Taken together, these findings indicate that general personal knowledge and, in particular, knowledge about personal goals plays an important role in the construction of episodic future thoughts...

..incidental). It is suggested that the influence of affective meaning on context memory may involve an automatic attraction of attention to contextual features associated with emotional words...

..These results suggest that future thinking involves a collection of processes that are related to different facets of future-event representation...

..It is suggested that the way we both remember our past and imagine our future is constrained by our current goals...

....

..The present results suggest that STM emerges from the deployment of modality-independent attentional and serial ordering processes toward sensory networks underlying the processing and storage of modality-specific item information...

..By demonstrating a trade-off between task-related and stimulus-related attention networks during verbal STM, this study highlights the dynamics of attentional processes involved in verbal STM...

....

..Moreover, we propose that perspective-taking disability participates in anosognosia, preventing patients from correcting their inaccurate self-representation based on their relative's perspective...

..It is suggested that the VMPFC is crucial for representing knowledge pertaining to the self and that this is an important function of the resting state...

..These data support the view that an important function of mind-wandering relates to the anticipation and planning of the future...

..These findings extend previous studies by showing that delusions are associated with a memory bias for threat-related stimuli...

..We suggest that the elderly tend to focus on their feelings when confronted with emotional pictures, which could have impaired their memory for the contextual information associated with these stimuli...

....

..These differences might reflect a tendency by older people to engage in more emotional/social processing than younger adults when making self-referential judgements with a first-person perspective...

..In particular, symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions seem to be related to elevated levels of emotionalizing, whereas interpersonal schizotypy is related to difficulty verbalizing and identifying emotions...

..The data are in line with limited information processing accounts of SLI...

..The behavioral patterns of the patients in subgroups II and III could be interpreted as deficient post-retrieval verification processes and an inability to recollect item-specific information, respectively...

..This suggests that there is a specific dysfunction affecting intentional inhibitory control of memory contents in normal ageing...

....

....

....

..These data highlight the specificity of verbal STM for serial order and item information and suggest a causal association between order STM processes and vocabulary development, at least in 4- and 6-year-olds...

....

..Moreover, older participants, who showed a decrease in recollection together with an increase in familiarity, performed better on the forced-choice task than on the yes-no task, whereas younger participants showed the opposite pattern...

..The results offer further evidence of the multi-dimensionality of hallucinatory disposition in the normal population. Directions for future research in hallucinatory predisposition are discussed...

....

..In conclusion, this study highlights the effectiveness of combined specific learning techniques for improving AD patient's autonomy in daily life activities...

..s (1995) proposal that processes involved in the mere exposure effect are equivalent to those subserving perceptual priming. These processes would depend on extrastriate areas which are relatively preserved in AD patients...

..Consequently, inhibitory dysfunction could be the consequence of a (partial) disconnection process between posterior and anterior cerebral areas...

....

..Importantly, serial order STM remains a strong predictor of lexical learning, even for bilingual individuals who have broad phonological knowledge...

..The choice of processing strategy may depend on how difficult patients perceive the task to be...

..These findings suggest that participants' processing strategies influence performance on the three tasks...

..The results of this neuroimaging study are in agreement with cognitive studies demonstrating that executive functioning is characterized by both unity and diversity of processes...

..These results are discussed in light of the Paradoxical Negative Emotion (PNE) hypothesis (Porter, Taylor, & ten Bricke, 2008)...

....

..Furthermore, we noted that the nonanalytic strategy involved less extensive gaze scanning than the analytic strategy and that memory effects under this processing strategy were largely independent of gaze movement...

..Moreover, the results suggest that the poor performance of patients with AD during free and cued recall is related to a decreased connectivity between parahippocampal regions and frontal areas...

....

..These data suggest that impaired verbal STM at late outcome of LKS might indeed be related to a persistent decrease of activity in those posterior superior temporal gyri that were involved in the epileptic focus during the active phase...

..Our results suggest that the verbal STS deficit observed in AD patients is related to impaired executive control processes. On the other hand, language-related processes underlying passive storage capacity seem to be preserved...

..s proposal. Based on the above considerations, we suggest and discuss a revised model for upper limb apraxia that might best account for both brain imaging findings and neuropsychological dissociations reported in the apraxia literature...

..These data are in line with those from more global studies in suggesting that AD is characterized by an early deterioration in controlled processes and an initial preservation of automatic processes...

..Moreover, the involvement of a parietal area in the dual task is in keeping with the hypothesis that a parieto-frontal network sustains executive functioning...

..This associative deficit seems to affect same-information associations, as well as different-information associations...

..The first one based on processes leading to fragment-specific knowledge (the chunks, which can be accessed explicitly), and the second based on the learning of simple associations and more complex conditional relations between elements...

..In addition, they demonstrate the robustness of the SPT effect in AD patients, who were able to improve memory performance in the SPT condition not only with highly familiar actions but also with less familiar actions...

..The aims of the present study were, first, to explore the relation between age and the prevalence of delusion proneness and, second, to examine the association between personality and delusion proneness in young and elderly participants...

..This suggests that the age-related decrease in list discrimination could be at least partly due to a difficulty in inferring strategically the temporal context of the items from information encoded in the same time...

....

..Its relationship to sublexical and lexical phonological processing as well as to phonological short-term memory is discussed...

....

..The implication of serial order short-term memory deficits on other aspects of cognitive development in VCFS (e.g., language development, numerical cognition) is discussed...

....

....

..This finding demonstrates that processes that establish coherent and temporary episodic representations in working memory are impaired in schizophrenia...

..Oxford, New York: Oxford University Press, 1996]...

..Poor visual memory was the second best predictor of those MCI patients who evolved to AD. A cued recall test which avoids the ceiling effect is at least as good as the delayed free recall tests in the early detection of AD...

..These findings are discussed in a cognitive control framework...

..They also supply further evidence for a partial dissociation between the neural substrates supporting conscious and nonconscious components of performance during recollection of a learned sequence...

..In this task, both elderly participants and DAT patients performed similarly to the group of young adult participants, indicating comparable efficacy to resist auditory distraction...

..This suggests that premeditation is related to decision making influenced by somatic (or emotional) markers...

....

..We tested the hypothesis that alcoholics exhibit greater cognitive disinhibition when the response to be suppressed is associated with alcohol-related information...

..These findings suggest that sad facial expressions led to more elaborate encoding, and thereby better recollection, in dysphoric individuals...

..Examination of individual performance in AD patients indicated that the impairment was found in most patients on the Hayling test but in only a subgroup of patients on the Stroop test...

..It is suggested that a memory bias for angry faces favors disruptive behavior but that a good ability to control impulses may moderate the negative impact of this bias...

..These results are consistent with previous reports of intact directed forgetting in frontal patients and are discussed in terms of their implications for the current debate on the neural substrate of executive functions...

..Study 2 replicates these results and reveals that memory functioning in fibromyalgia patients is related to their painful condition as a whole rather than to any particular patient's characteristics...

..This prospective study evaluated memory function during general anesthesia for elective surgery and its relation to depth of hypnotic state. The authors also compared memory function in anesthetized and nonanesthetized subjects...

..These results stress the close correlation, but relative independence between calculation and language, as well as a dissociated sensitivity of oral and digital processing to brain lesions...

..These findings suggest that OCD patients might present a specific deficit affecting the inhibition of a prepotent response...

..This suggests a significant role for the ACC/MPFC in the explicit processing of sequential material...
