Multiple Practice Success Scaffolds Long-Term Test-Enhanced Learning in Preschoolers
Retrieval practice is known to enhance long-term memory retention, a phenomenon termed as retrieval practice effect. Two experiments (NWhite = 202), showed that the effect was present in preschool age (5–6 years) and had a boundary condition, namely, amount of initial learning. Specifically, there was a considerable effect only when children reached a sufficient retrieval success rate during practice as a consequence of multiple initial learning …
Litmus test of rich episodic representations
Context-dependent episodic memory is typically investigated using tasks in which retrieval occurs either in the reinstated context of encoding or in a completely new context. A fundamental question of episodic memory models is the level of detail in episodic memory representations containing contextual information about the encoded event. The present study examined whether memory is affected when the contexts of encoding and retrieval are highly …
Learning to distinguish
Pattern separation is a computational mechanism performed by the hippocampus allowing the reduction of overlap between sensory inputs with similar perceptual features. Our first aim was to develop a new paradigm sensitive to the behavioural consequences of pattern separation (mnemonic discrimination). For this purpose, we constructed morphed face stimuli with parametrically changing levels of similarity. After encoding participants saw studied it…
Behavioural pattern separation is strongly associated with familiarity-based decisions
Pattern separation is the process that minimises interference between memory representations with similar features and is suggested to be associated with hippocampus-related recollection. We tested this hypothesis using the incidental Mnemonic Similarity Task with old (target), similar (lure), and new (foil) items presented on a recognition test, which is widely used for detecting individual differences in behavioural pattern separation performan…
A New Division of Schizophrenia Revealed Expanded Bilateral Brain Structural Abnormalities of the Association Cortices
The phenomenological and, consequently, pathophysiological heterogeneity of schizophrenia may be substantially decreased by determining etiologically valid subgroups. In a cross-sectional study, we analyzed the brain structural impairments of outpatients with schizophrenia using concurrent subgrouping methods, partly to enhance the extensity of exploration, and partly to estimate the validation of the divisions. High resolution T1-weighted MR ima…
Handling L2 Input in Phonological STM
This article reports on an experiment comparing the effects of three discrete types of deviance from native language (L1) phonetics and phonology on verbal short-term memory performance. A nonword repetition task was used to measure the recall of four stimulus types: (a) high-probability L1-sounding nonwords, (b) low-probability L1-sounding nonwords, (c) nonwords containing illegal L1 phoneme sequences, and (d) nonwords containing non-L1 sound se…
Spatial language in Williams Syndrome
We present data on the language of space in Hungarian individuals with Williams syndrome (WS; 19 in the first, 15 in the second study, between 8;0 and 21;11) and a verbal control (VC) group of typically developing (TD; 19 in the first, 15 in the second study, between 3;5 and 10;7) children from: (1) a study of elicited production and comprehension of spatial terms; and (2) a sentence completion task on case markers in their spatial and non-spatia…
