Aging and effect of predictability on reality monitoring.

This study compared the direction of source confusions and the effect of predictability on reality monitoring for internally generated information and externally derived information in younger (mean age 19-25) and older (mean age 70-85) adults. ...

Free recall accuracy for common and bizarre verbal information.

A large body of empirical research suggests better free recall for bizarre than common verbal information; however, the bulk of those studies used a method that does not consider the contextual and relational accuracy of recovered memories. The ...

Expert-novice differences in memory: a reformulation.

BACKGROUND: One of the most discriminating measures of expertise in multiple domains has been performance on memory tasks. In medicine, however, the relation between expertise and memory is more equivocal. PURPOSE: To compare and contrast the sufficiency ...

Neural basis of temporal context memory: a functional MRI study.

Temporal context information is crucial to understanding human episodic memory. Human lesion and neuroimaging data indicate that prefrontal regions are important for retrieving temporal context memory, although the exact nature of their involvement is ...

Meat consumption in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) cohorts: results from 24-hour dietary recalls.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate meat intake patterns in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) cohorts. DESIGN AND SETTING: 24-Hour dietary recalls were assessed within the framework of a prospective cohort study in 27 centres ...

More on magnitude of priming in implicit memory tasks.

The effects of word frequency, length of the word, and type of word fragment in a fragment-completion test were investigated with 57 undergraduate students, 19-22 years. Priming with better performance on studied than on nonstudied words in this task was ...

Do landmarks help or hinder women in route learning?

Previous research on route learning has demonstrated that men learn routes faster and with fewer errors than women, whereas women are able to recall more landmarks along the route. The present study was aimed at investigating whether landmarks help or ...

Age differences in lineup identification accuracy: people are better with their own age.

Previous research has reported that young adults are better at eyewitness face recognition than are older adults. However, these studies have used young adults as culprits and fillers. We explore how the relative ages of the witness and the culprit ...

Individual differences in working memory within a nomological network of cognitive and perceptual speed abilities.

It has become fashionable to equate constructs of working memory (WM) and general intelligence (g). Few investigations have provided direct evidence that WM and g measures yield similar ordering of individuals. Correlational investigations have yielded ...

Acquisition of categorical color perception: a perceptual learning approach to the linguistic relativity hypothesis.

Color perception can be categorical: Between-category discriminations are more accurate than equivalent within-category discriminations. The effects could be inherited, learned, or both. The authors provide evidence that supports the possibility of ...
