Sinclair, Alyssa H.; Barense, Morgan D. – Learning & Memory, 2018
Through the process of "reconsolidation," reminders can temporarily destabilize memories and render them vulnerable to change. Recent rodent research has proposed that prediction error, or the element of surprise, is a key component of this process; yet, this hypothesis has never before been extended to complex episodic memories in…

Georgiou, George K.; Das, J. P. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2015
The present study aimed to examine the nature of the working memory and general cognitive ability deficits experienced by university students with a specific reading comprehension deficit. A total of 32 university students with poor reading comprehension but average word-reading skills and 60 age-word-matched controls with no comprehension…

Trempe, Maxime; Sabourin, Maxime; Proteau, Luc – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2012
Consolidation is a time-dependent process that is responsible for the storage of information in long-term memory. As such, it plays a crucial role in motor learning. Prior research suggests that some consolidation processes are triggered only when the learner experiences some success during practice. In the present study, we tested whether…

Piterkin, Pavel; Cole, Emily; Cossette, Marie-Pierre; Gaskin, Stephane; Mumby, Dave G. – Learning & Memory, 2008
Recent evidence suggests that rats require an intact hippocampus in order to recognize familiar objects when they encounter them again in a different context. The two experiments reported here further examined how changes in context affect rats' performance on the novel-object preference (NOP) test of object-recognition memory, and how those…

Stipanicic, Annie; Nolin, Pierre; Fortin, Gilles; Gobeil, M. F. – Child Abuse & Neglect: The International Journal, 2008
Objective: Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS) is now recognized as being the main cause of severe traumatic brain injury in infancy. However, our understanding of the impact of this type of abuse on child development remains sketchy. The main objective of the current study was therefore to shed light on the cognitive dysfunctions that are particular to…
