Fraize, Nicolas; Hamieh, Al Mahdy; Joseph, Mickael Antoine; Touret, Monique; Parmentier, Regis; Salin, Paul Antoine; Malleret, Gael – Learning & Memory, 2017
Phosphorylation of CaMKII and AMPA receptor GluA1 subunit has been shown to play a major role in hippocampal-dependent long-term/reference memory (RM) and in the expression of long-term synaptic potentiation (LTP). In contrast, it has been proposed that dephosphorylation of these proteins could be involved in the opposite phenomenon of hippocampal…

Plancher, Gaen; Barrouillet, Pierre – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2013
The sources of forgetting in working memory remain the matter of intense debate. According to the SOB model (serial order in a box; Farrell & Lewandowsky, 2002), forgetting in complex span tasks does not result from temporal decay but from interference produced by the encoding of distractors that are superimposed over memory items onto a…

Carrico, Renee L. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2013
The current study examined the role of increased attentional load in 24 month-old children's multistep problem-solving behavior. Children solved an object-based nonspatial working-memory search task, to which a motor component of varying difficulty was added. Significant disruptions in search performance were observed with the introduction of the…
