Recognition memory deficits in mild cognitive impairment.
There is no agreement on the pattern of recognition memory deficits characteristic of patients diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Whereas lower performance in recollection is the hallmark of MCI, there is a strong controversy about possible deficits in familiarity estimates when using recognition memory tasks. The aim of this research is to shed light on the pattern of responding i...
متن کاملProspective memory in amnestic mild cognitive impairment.
Individuals with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) often complain of difficulty remembering to carry out intended actions, consistent with findings of impaired prospective memory (PM) in this population. In this study, individuals with aMCI (N = 27) performed worse than healthy controls (N = 27) on the Memory for Intentions Screening Test (Raskin, 2004), including on time- and event-bas...
متن کاملPatterns of Semantic Memory Impairment in Mild Cognitive Impairment
Although the semantic memory impairment has been largely documented in Alzheimer's disease, little is known about semantic memory in the preclinical phase of the disease (Mild Cognitive Impairment). The purpose of this study was to document the nature of semantic breakdown using a battery of tests assessing different aspects of conceptual knowledge: knowledge about common objects, famous people...
متن کاملMild Cognitive Impairment: Beyond Memory Dysfunction
Traditionally, mild cognitive impairment (MCI) has tended to be primarily characterised and diagnosed in relation to the integrity of amnestic function and thus studied accordingly. However, a more recent multidisciplinary and collaborative research approach has investigated a much wider range of cognitive, functional, structural, and behavioural integrity and is revealing an extensive and ofte...
متن کاملBrain stimulation improves associative memory in an individual with amnestic mild cognitive impairment.
In patients with cognitive deficits, brain stimulation has been shown to restore cognition ( Miniussi et al., 2008 , Brain Stimulation, 1, 326). The aim of this study was to assess whether repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) could improve memory performance in an individual with amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment (aMCI). Stimulation of the left parietal cortex increased accuracy...
