The capacity to search memory for events learned in a particular context stands as one of
the most remarkable feats of the human brain. How is memory search accomplished? First, I …

We present a review of frequency effects in memory, accompanied by a theory of memory,
according to which the storage of new information in long-term memory (LTM) depletes a …

This article asks whether serial order phenomena in perception, memory, and action are
manifestations of a single underlying serial order process. The question is addressed …

Encoding-and retrieval-related neural activity jointly determine mnemonic success. We ask
whether electroencephalographic activity can reliably predict encoding and retrieval …

Studies of human memory indicate that features of an event evoke memories of prior
associated contextual states, which in turn become associated with the current event's …

Abstract Concept neurons in the medial temporal lobe respond to semantic features of
presented stimuli. Analyzing 61 concept neurons recorded from twelve patients who …

Most theories of free recall emphasize the importance of retrieval in explaining temporal and
semantic regularities in recall; rehearsal mechanisms are often absent or limit rehearsal to a …

For memory to be efficient, people need to remember important information. This involves
selective encoding and retrieval operations to maximise the recall of valuable information at …

This article tests the conjecture that memory retrieval is attention turned inward by
developing an episodic flanker task that is analogous to the well-known perceptual flanker …

Some memories are linked such that recalling one can trigger the retrieval of another. What
determines which memories are linked? Some models predict that simply occurring close …
