False memories with age: Neural and cognitive underpinnings
AL Devitt, DL Schacter - Neuropsychologia, 2016 - Elsevier
As we age we become increasingly susceptible to memory distortions and inaccuracies.
Over the past decade numerous neuroimaging studies have attempted to illuminate the …

Cognitive control as a double-edged sword
Cognitive control, the ability to limit attention to goal-relevant information, aids performance
on a wide range of laboratory tasks. However, there are many day-to-day functions which …

Attention is spontaneously biased toward regularities
J Zhao, N Al-Aidroos… - Psychological …, 2013 - journals.sagepub.com
Knowledge about regularities in the environment can be used to facilitate perception,
memory, and language acquisition. Given this usefulness, we hypothesized that statistically …

The necessity of the medial temporal lobe for statistical learning
AC Schapiro, E Gregory, B Landau… - Journal of cognitive …, 2014 - direct.mit.edu
The sensory input that we experience is highly patterned, and we are experts at detecting
these regularities. Although the extraction of such regularities, or statistical learning (SL), is …

Linguistic entrenchment: Prior knowledge impacts statistical learning performance
Statistical Learning (SL) is typically considered to be a domain-general mechanism by which
cognitive systems discover the underlying statistical regularities in the input. Recent findings …

A four-component model of age-related memory change.
We develop a novel, computationally explicit, theory of age-related memory change within
the framework of the context maintenance and retrieval (CMR2) model of memory search …

A matched filter hypothesis for cognitive control
The prefrontal cortex exerts top-down influences on several aspects of higher-order
cognition by functioning as a filtering mechanism that biases bottom-up sensory information …

The benefits of immature cognitive control: How distributed attention guards against learning traps
Cognitive control allows one to focus one's attention efficiently on relevant information while
filtering out irrelevant information. This ability provides a means of rapid and effective …
