Memory Training Interventions: What has been forgotten?
Memory training for older adults often produces gains that are limited to the particular memory tasks encountered during training. We suggest that memory training programs may be misguided by an implicit "generalist" assumption-memory training on a couple of memory tasks will have a positive benefit on memory ability in general. One approach to increase memory-training benefits is to target tra...

متن کاملBilateral tactile agnosia: a case report.
This study reports a 64-year-old right-handed male who manifested bilateral tactile recognition deficits. They were diagnosed as bilateral tactile agnosia, since the patient showed difficulty in semantic association of objects despite preserved hylognosis and morphognosis. The patient had a bilateral lesion in the subcortical region of the angular gyrus. The case reported by Endo et al. (1992) ...
متن کاملPure Amorphagnosia without Tactile Object Agnosia
A 54-year-old female showed amorphagnosia without ahylognosia and tactile agnosia 40 days after the onset of right cerebral infarction. Her basic somatosensory functions were normal. The appreciation of substance qualities (hylognosia) was preserved, but the patient's inability to recognize the size and shape (morphagnosia) was confined to 2- and 3-dimensional shapes (amorphagnosia) in the left...
متن کاملWhat has been learned from computational models of attention
There are few fields where neurocomputational modelling 1 is as necessary as in that of attention — a multifaceted and 2 elusive process that is at the very core of cognition and con3 sciousness (James, 1890). While descriptive theories of at4 tentional functions, relying on a plethora of metaphors (spot5 light/zoomlens, increased-gain, biased-competition), abound, 6 computational models that a...
