This paper develops a model wherein STM primacy as well as recency effects can occur.
The STM primacy effects can be used to generate correct immediate recall of short lists that …

Recent studies show that neuronal mechanisms for learning and memory both dynamically
modulate and permanently alter the representations of visual stimuli in the adult monkey …

Although memory formation occurs in a sequence of pharmacologically dissociable stages,
many models assume that this sequence is located within a single neuronal ensemble …

To assess the possibility that the occurrence of hippocampal theta during learning reflects
the role of this structure in mediating attention or orienting responses, hippocampal electrical …

Groups of Long—Evans rats with bilateral lesions of the caudate nucleus, sham lesions, or
no lesions were given one trial per day in an eight-arm radial maze. The same four maze …

Providing the first glimpse of how associative memories are actually established in our
brains, this book describes a research strategy for unravelling the mystery of memory and …

Abstract Ideas about how the brain organizes learning and memory have been evolving in
recent years, with potentially important ramifications. We review traditional thinking about …

The distinction between memory and habit has been of great historical importance in
theories of animal learning. The reality of animal memory is now firmly established, but it is …

Highlights•In rodents, neuronal excitability influences which cell populations encode
information.•In rodents, temporally proximal events are encoded in overlapping cell …

Some reflections on the debate between representatives of laboratory-based and
naturalistic study of memory, as to the relative merits and shortcomings of the two …
