With memory encoding reliant on persistent changes in the properties of synapses, a key question is how can memories be maintained from days to months or a lifetime given molecular turnover? It is likely that positive feedback loops are necessary to persistently maintain the strength of synapses that participate in encoding. Such feedback may…

A model of short-term memory and episodic memory is presented, with the core assumptions that (a) people parse their continuous experience into episodic clusters and (b) items are clustered together in memory as episodes by binding information within an episode to a common temporal context.

Second, once…

Two additional studies in long-term sentence memory were conducted to determine if certain critical relationships predicted by a cognitive model of test anxiety could be strengthened. Using the same sentence materials combined with different procedures, reliable test anxiety - memory relationships were generated by not constraining the initial…
