Movements and Memory

Attenuation of reserpine-induced perioral movements and memory dysfunction by natural antioxidants

Neuroleptics are widely prescribed drugs for the treatment of schizophrenia and related psychiatric disorders. Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a late complication of prolonged neuroleptic treatment. Despite much research, the pathogenesis of TD remains elusive. It may be caused by loss of dopaminergic cells, due to free radicals as a product of high synaptic dopamine levels. Tardive dyskinesia has b...

Learning and Memory Formation of Arm Movements

Aging, Eye Movements, and Object-Location Memory

This study investigated whether "intentional" instructions could improve older adults' object memory and object-location memory about a scene by promoting object-oriented viewing. Eye movements of younger and older adults were recorded while they viewed a photograph depicting 12 household objects in a cubicle with or without the knowledge that memory about these objects and their locations woul...

Eye movements and visual memory for scenes

' In this chapter we discuss three types of memory that are relevant for understanding how scene representations are generated over the course of scene viewing. We focus particularly on scene memory generated dynamically across eye movements, and we highlight studies that record eye movements. We argue that the results of studies focusing on transsaccadic memory, active on-line scene memory, an...
