Memory, Language Comprehension, and Mental Retardation

There is a long history of research conducted on memory systems and processes of persons with mental retardation. In fact, the relation between memory ability and general intellectual ability was part of many of the earliest intelligence tests (see Estes, 1982). In terms of basic memory systems, researchers have evaluated the performance of persons with mental retardation relative to persons wi...

Serial Dependence across Perception, Attention, and Memory.

Information that has been recently perceived or remembered can bias current processing. This has been viewed as both a corrupting (e.g., proactive interference in short-term memory) and stabilizing (e.g., serial dependence in perception) phenomenon. We hypothesize that this bias is a generally adaptive aspect of brain function that leads to occasionally maladaptive outcomes.

Aspects of the Theory of Comprehension, Memory and Attention

This paper proposed a two-stage model to capture some basic relations between attention, comprehension and memory for sentences. According to the model, the first stage of linguistic processing is carried out in short-term memory (MI) and involves a superficial analysis of semantic and syntactic features of words. The second stage is carried out in long-term memory (M2) and involves application...
