  1. ncbi Time course of word identification and semantic integration in spoken language
    C Van Petten
    Department of Psychology, University of Arizona, Tucson 85721, USA
    J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn 25:394-417. 1999
    ..Results indicate that semantic integration can begin to operate with only partial, incomplete information about word identity. Influences of semantic constraint, word frequency, and rate of presentation are described...
  2. ncbi Neural localization of semantic context effects in electromagnetic and hemodynamic studies
    Cyma Van Petten
    Department of Psychology, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA
    Brain Lang 97:279-93. 2006
    ..A second commonly identified region in the fMRI studies is the left inferior frontal gyrus, which does not appear to make a substantial contribution to the N400 effect...
  3. ncbi Relationship between hippocampal volume and memory ability in healthy individuals across the lifespan: review and meta-analysis
    Cyma Van Petten
    Department of Psychology, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA
    Neuropsychologia 42:1394-413. 2004
    ..Some of the variability in results from older adults was associated with statistical methods of normalizing for age and head size, which are discussed...
  4. ncbi Memory and executive function in older adults: relationships with temporal and prefrontal gray matter volumes and white matter hyperintensities
    Cyma Van Petten
    Department of Psychology, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA
    Neuropsychologia 42:1313-35. 2004
    ..Several previous reports of significant negative correlations between gray matter volumes and memory performance are described, so that the possible reasons for this surprising finding are discussed...

    Department of Psychology, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA
    Neuropsychologia 46:2243-57. 2008
    ..Individual variability in parietal ERPs was strongly correlated with memory accuracy, which we suggest reflects a contribution of visual working memory to long-term memory. We discuss multiple bottlenecks for source memory performance...

    Jonathan R Folstein
    Department of Psychology, University of Arizona, Tucscon, AZ 85721, USA
    J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn 30:1026-44. 2004

    Trudy Y Kuo
    Department of Psychology, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 58705, USA
