Journal ArticleDOI

Creating false memories: Remembering words not presented in lists.

TL;DR: The concept of false memories is not new; psychologists have been studying false memories in several laboratory paradigms for years as discussed by the authors and Schacter (in press) provides an historical overview of the study of memory distortions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Precision Functional Mapping of Individual Human Brains

TL;DR: A novel MRI dataset containing 5 hr of RSFC data, 6 hour of task fMRI, multiple structural MRIs, and neuropsychological tests from each of ten adults generated ten high-fidelity, individual-specific functional connectomes, revealing several new types of spatial and organizational variability in brain networks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hemispheric Specialization in Human Dorsal Frontal Cortex and Medial Temporal Lobe for Verbal and Nonverbal Memory Encoding

TL;DR: The results indicate that regions in both hemispheres underlie human long-term memory encoding, and these regions can be engaged differentially according to the nature of the material being encoded.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional System and Areal Organization of a Highly Sampled Individual Human Brain.

TL;DR: The brain organization of a single individual repeatedly measured over more than a year is characterized and a reproducible and internally valid subject-specific areal-level parcellation that corresponds with subject- specific task activations is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Factors that determine false recall: a multiple regression analysis.

TL;DR: The results fit well within the theoretical framework postulating that both semantic activation of the critical item and strategic monitoring processes influence the probability of false recall and false recognition in this paradigm.
