We propose a new account of how self-reference affects information processing. We report
evidence that self-reference affects the binding of memory to source, the integration of parts …

Age-related cognitive changes often include difficulties in retrieving memories, particularly
those that rely on personal experiences within their temporal and spatial contexts (ie …

Focusing primarily on functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), this article reviews
evidence regarding the roles of subregions of the medial temporal lobes, prefrontal cortex …

Decisions are often guided by generalizing from past experiences. Fundamental questions
remain regarding the cognitive and neural mechanisms by which generalization takes place …

As we age we become increasingly susceptible to memory distortions and inaccuracies.
Over the past decade numerous neuroimaging studies have attempted to illuminate the …

This article addresses key topics in cognitive aging, intending to provide the reader with a
brief overview of the current state of research in this growing, multidisciplinary field. A …

We provide a comprehensive review describing research on the qualitative representational
nature of older adults' episodic memories. Our review considers several broad theoretical …

Memories are not stored as exact copies of our experiences. As a result, remembering is
subject not only to memory failure, but to inaccuracies and distortions as well. Although such …

Normal aging is associated with cognitive decline and underlying brain dysfunction.
Previous studies concentrated less on brain network changes at a systems level. Our goal …

To investigate the neural basis of age-related source memory (SM) deficits, young and older
adults were scanned with fMRI while encoding faces, scenes, and face-scene pairs …
