Delineating the functional organization of the prefrontal cortex is central to advancing
models of goal‐directed cognition. Considerable evidence indicates that specific forms of …

Memory systems research has typically described the different types of long-term memory in
the brain as either declarative versus non-declarative or implicit versus explicit. These …

People can rapidly form arbitrary associations between stimuli and the responses they make
in the presence of those stimuli. Such stimulus–response (S–R) bindings, when retrieved …

Stimulus repetition in identification tasks leads to improved behavioral performance
(“repetition priming”) but attenuated neural responses (“repetition suppression”) throughout …

Converging anatomical and functional evidence suggests that the cerebellum processes
both motor and nonmotor information originating from the primary motor cortex and …

Neural activity underlying executive functions is subject to modulation as a result of
increasing cognitive demands and practice. In the present study, we examined these …

Research on stimulus–response (SR) associations as the basis of behavioral automaticity
has a long history. Traditionally, it was assumed that SR associations are formed as a …

Execution of two independent actions in quick succession results in transient binding of
these two actions. Subsequent repetition of any of these actions automatically retrieves the …

It has been shown that acquired stimulus–response bindings result from at least two types of
associations from the stimulus to the task (stimulus–task or stimulus–classification; S–C) and …

Procedural memory is a form of implicit memory whereby people may learn skills through
practice without conscious awareness of what has been learned. Whereas declarative …
