Kinding memory
My commentary focuses on Khalidi's defense of episodic memory as a cognitive kind. His argument relies on merging two distinct accounts of episodic memory—the phenomenal and the etiological. I suggest that Khalidi's framework can be used to carve the contemporary memory literature differently. On this view, the phenomenal account supports constructive episodic simulation as a cognitive kind, the etiological account supports event memory as a cogn…
Introduction to the topical collection ‘locating representations in the brain
Episodic Memory, Simulated Future Planning, and their Evolution
The Role of Memory Science in the Philosophy of Memory
The author declares that there are no conflicts of interest
Defending Discontinuism, Naturally
Letter teaching in parent–child conversations
Stable Engrams and Neural Dynamics
The idea that remembering involves an engram, becoming stable and permanent via consolidation, has guided the neuroscience of memory since its inception. The shift to thinking of memory as continuous and dynamic, as part of a trend toward neural dynamics, has challenged this commitment, with some, such as Lynn Nadel, calling for “the demise of the fixed trace” and others, such as Alcino J. Silva, urging rejection of the “consolidation dogma.” Doe…
Confabulation and constructive memory
Parent–child conversations about literacy
Conversations about literacy-related matters with parents can help prepare children for formal literacy instruction. We studied these conversations using data gathered from fifty-six US families as they engaged in daily activities at home. Analyzing conversations when children were aged 1;10, 2;6, 3;6, and 4;2, we found that explicit talk about the elements and processes of reading and writing occurred even when children were less than two years …
Memory and Optogenetic Intervention
Optogenetics makes possible the control of neural activity with light. In this article, I explore how the development of this experimental tool has brought about methodological and theoretical advances in the neurobiological study of memory. I begin with Semon’s distinction between the engram and the ecphory , explaining how these concepts present a methodological challenge to investigating memory. Optogenetics provides a way to intervene into th…
