1. 1. Brain-based teaching : behavioral and neuro-cognitive evidence for the power of test-enhanced learning

   Författare :Carola Wiklund-Hörnqvist; Bert Jonsson; Lars Nyberg; Linnea Karlsson; Jeffrey D. Karpicke; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; learning; memory; memory processes; the testing effect; test-enhanced learning; retrieval practice; evidence-based teaching methods; neuro-cognitive processes; working memory; memory strength; semantic elaboration; Psychology; psykologi;

   Sammanfattning : A primary goal of education is the acquisition of durable knowledge which challenges the use of efficient pedagogical methods of how to best facilitate learning. Research in cognitive psychology has demonstrated that repeated testing during the learning phase improves performance on later retention tests compared to restudy of material. LÄS MER

3. 2. Remembering in Alzheimer's disease : utilization of cognitive support

   Författare :Agneta Herlitz; Lars-Göran Nilsson; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Alzheimer s disease; Dementia; Memory; Episodic memory; Semantic memory; Severity of dementia; Alzheimers sjukdom; demens; minne;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of the present doctoral thesis was to investigate the ability of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) to utilize cognitive support in order to improve episodic remembering. A review of previous research indicated that most studies have failed to find beneficial effects of encoding support on memory in AD patients. LÄS MER

4. 3. A Purkinje cell Timing Mechanism. On the Physical Basis of a Temporal Duration Memory

   Författare :Fredrik Johansson; Associativ inlärning; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cerebellum; Purkinje cell; Timing; Temporal; Memory; Eyeblink conditioning; mGluR7; Kir3; GIRK;

   Sammanfattning : The standard view of neural signaling is that a neuron can influence its target cell by exciting or inhibiting it. Learning is thought to involve strengthening or weakening synaptic connections. For most behaviors, the brain must learn to produce precisely timed activity patterns. LÄS MER

5. 4. Behavioral and Electrophysiological Correlates of Inhibition in Episodic Memory

   Författare :Gerd Waldhauser; Institutionen för psykologi; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; memory control; inhibition; EEG; ERP; forgetting;

   Sammanfattning : Forgetting can be highly functional when unwanted or irrelevant memory representations interfere with cognitive or motivational goals. Current theory assumes that forgetting can be brought about by the intentional or unintentional inhibition of interfering memory representations. LÄS MER

7. 5. Mapping prosody onto the lexicon : Memory traces for lexically specified prosodic information in the brain

   Författare :Hatice Zora; Mattias Heldner; Iris-Corinna Schwarz; Valéria Csépe; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; lexical access; prosody; neuroimaging; electroencephalography; event-related potentials; memory trace; typology; English; Turkish; Swedish; Linguistics; lingvistik;

   Sammanfattning : Lexical access, the matching of auditory information onto lexical representations in the brain, is a crucial component of online language processing. To understand the nature of lexical access, it is important to identify the kind of acoustic information that is stored in the long-term memory and to study how the brain uses such information.
