Verbal memory impairment in severe closed head injury: the role of encoding and consolidationMatthew J Wright
Department of Psychiatry, Harbor UCLA Medical Center, Torrance, CA 90502, USA
J Clin Exp Neuropsychol 32:728-36. 2010..Finally, CHI encoding deficits were largely driven by low semantic clustering during list learning. These results suggest that encoding (primary) and consolidation (secondary) deficits account for CHI-associated verbal memory impairment...
The Item-Specific Deficit Approach to evaluating verbal memory dysfunction: rationale, psychometrics, and applicationMatthew J Wright
Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior, University of California, Los Angeles, CA, USA
J Clin Exp Neuropsychol 31:790-802. 2009..Currently, the ISDA is intended for experimental use, although further research may support its utility for characterizing memory impairments in clinical assessments...
The impact of verbal memory encoding and consolidation deficits during recovery from moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injuryMatthew J Wright
Department of Psychiatry Psychology Division, Harbor UCLA Medical Center, Torrance, California 90502, USA
J Head Trauma Rehabil 26:182-91. 2011..It is unknown whether these abilities vary during TBI recovery. We sought to determine the pattern and impact of verbal encoding and consolidation deficits following TBI...
Antiretroviral adherence and the nature of HIV-associated verbal memory impairmentMatthew J Wright
Psychology Division, Department of Psychiatry, Harbor UCLA Medical Center, Torrance, CA, USA
J Neuropsychiatry Clin Neurosci 23:324-31. 2011..The retrieval difference between the adherence groups might be explained by a neuroprotective effect of good antiretroviral adherence or preexisting HIV-related retrieval deficits that result in poorer adherence...
Basal ganglia structures differentially contribute to verbal fluency: evidence from Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-infected adultsApril D Thames
UCLA School of Medicine, 760 Westwood Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90024, United States
Neuropsychologia 50:390-5. 2012..We examined BG integrity in relation to lexico-semantic verbal fluency performance among older HIV infected adults...
Aging, neurocognition, and medication adherence in HIV infectionMark L Ettenhofer
Department of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences, David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California at Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA, USA
Am J Geriatr Psychiatry 17:281-90. 2009..To evaluate the hypothesis that poor adherence to highly active antiretroviral treatment (HAART) would be more strongly related to cognitive impairment among older than among younger HIV-seropositive adults...
Neurocognitive functioning in HIV-1 infection: effects of cerebrovascular risk factors and ageJessica Foley
UCLA Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior, Los Angeles, CA 90095 8353, USA
Clin Neuropsychol 24:265-85. 2010..The cognitive impact of risk appears to be more pronounced in the absence of adequate pharmacological treatment...
