In this article we describe the ideas and circumstances that led to the experiment
demonstrating a triple dissociation of memory systems. We then move on to discuss the …

This study investigated the respective roles of the hippocampus, the amygdala, and the
dorsal striatum in learning and memory. A standard set of experimental conditions for …

This article presents a critical evaluation of the logic and nature of the neuropsychological
dissociation evidence that has provided one of the essential lines of support for claims of …

Evidence from a variety of domains converges on the view that there are multiple
learning/memory systems, but there is no clear understanding of what these systems are …

Research of the neurobiological bases of learning and memory suggest that these
processes are not unitary in nature, but rather that relatively independent neural systems …

A theory of multiple parallel memory systems in the brain of the rat is described. Each system
consists of a series of interconnected neural structures. The “central structures” of the three …

As part of the general trend toward interdisciplinary research in recent years, a growing
number of investigators have come to consider both cognitive and neuroscientific …

Two relatively simple theories of brain function will be used to demonstrate the explanatory
power of multiple memory systems in your brain interacting cooperatively or competitively to …

The idea that memory is composed of distinct systems has a long history but became a topic
of experimental inquiry only after the middle of the 20th century. Beginning about 1980 …

Most contemporary theories of memory are based on the assumption that memory can be
divided into multiple psychological systems that are subserved by different neural substrates …
