Primate Prefrontal Neurons Encode the Association of Paired Visual Stimuli during the Pair-Association Task
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Andreau, Jorge Mario; Funahashi, Shintaro – Brain and Cognition, 2011
The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is known to contribute to memory processes such as encoding representations into long-term-memory (LTM) and retrieving these representations from LTM. However, the details of the PFC's contribution to LTM processes are not well known. To examine the characteristics of the PFC's contribution to LTM processes, we analyzed…

Contextual Facilitation in a Letter Search Task Depends on How the Prime Is Processed.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Smith, Marilyn Chapnik – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1979
Contextual facilitation appears to depend upon the mode of analysis of the prime. If the prime is analyzed as a meaningful unit, facilitation occurs. However, if it is subjected to a more discrete, letter-by-letter analysis, the priming effect vanishes. (Author/CP)
