Memory consolidation, retrograde amnesia and the hippocampal complex
Lynn Nadel,Morris Moscovitch +1 more
TL;DR: The hippocampal formation and related structures are involved in certain forms of memory (e.g. autobiographical episodic and spatial memory) for as long as they exist and contribute to the transformation and stabilization of other form of memory stored elsewhere in the brain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hemispheric encoding/retrieval asymmetry in episodic memory: positron emission tomography findings
TL;DR: A hemispheric encoding/retrieval asymmetry model of prefrontal involvement in encoding and retrieval of episodic memory is proposed, which suggests that left and right prefrontal lobes are part of an extensive neuronal network that subserves episodic remembering, but the two prefrontal hemispheres play different roles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aging and autobiographical memory: dissociating episodic from semantic retrieval.
TL;DR: Whereas younger adults were biased toward episodic details reflecting happenings, locations, perceptions, and thoughts, older adults favored semantic details not connected to a particular time and place, which persisted after additional structured probing for contextual details.
Journal ArticleDOI
The parietal cortex and episodic memory: an attentional account
TL;DR: The answer to the episodic-memory puzzle requires us to distinguish between the contributions of dorsal and ventral parietal regions and between the influence of top-down and bottom-up attention on memory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clustering and switching as two components of verbal fluency: evidence from younger and older healthy adults.
TL;DR: Overall, findings suggest that clustering and switching are dissociable fluency components and that switching is related to frontal-lobe functioning.
