Differential components of prospective memory? Evidence from fMRIJon S Simons
Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience and Department of Psychology, University College London, UK
Neuropsychologia 44:1388-97. 2006..Together, the results suggest that whilst cue identification and intention retrieval may be behaviorally separable, they share at least some common neural basis in anterior prefrontal cortex...
Dissociation between memory accuracy and memory confidence following bilateral parietal lesionsJon S Simons
Department of Experimental Psychology, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK
Cereb Cortex 20:479-85. 2010....
Is the parietal lobe necessary for recollection in humans?Jon S Simons
Brain Mapping Unit, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK
Neuropsychologia 46:1185-91. 2008..Thus, although the processes subserved by the human parietal lobe appear to be recruited to support memory function, they are not a necessary requirement for accurate remembering to occur...

Department of Psychology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
Neuroimage 18:827-36. 2003..These results provide evidence that the phenomenology of graded recall is represented neurally in frontal and parietal cortices, but that activation at encoding may not precipitate the different levels of recall experience...
