When Does Semantic Similarity Help Episodic Retrieval?
Free recall illustrates the spontaneous organization of memory. This organization comes in two forms: the temporal organization of the list and the semantic relations among list items. With estimates of semantic similarity provided by latent semantic analysis (LSA, T. K. Landauer and S. Dumais, 1997), we simultaneously assessed the effects of temporal and semantic factors on output order in del...
متن کاملConsequences of Cathodal Stimulation for Behavior: When Does It Help and When Does It Hurt Performance?
Cathodal Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (C-tDCS) has been reported, across different studies, to facilitate or hinder performance, or simply to have no tangible effect on behavior. This discrepancy is most prominent when C-tDCS is used to alter a cognitive function, questioning the assumption that cathodal stimulation always compromises performance. In this study, we aimed to study the...
متن کاملOptimal diet theory: when does it work, and when and why does it fail?
Over the last three decades, many studies have attempted to explain forager diets by using optimal diet theory (ODT). Despite some obvious successes, the utility of this theory remains controversial. We reviewed the results of 134 studies of optimal diet theory to test hypotheses on factors that can explain variation in the ability of ODT to predict diets and diet shifts in response to changes ...
متن کاملWhen remembering causes forgetting: electrophysiological correlates of retrieval-induced forgetting.
People tend to forget information that is related to memories they are actively trying to retrieve. On the basis of results from behavioral studies, such retrieval-induced forgetting is held to result from inhibitory control processes that are recruited to attenuate interference caused by competing memory traces. Employing electrophysiological measures of brain activity, the present study exami...
متن کاملWhen remembering causes forgetting: retrieval-induced forgetting as recovery failure.
Retrieval practice on a subset of previously learned material can cause forgetting of the unpracticed material and make it inaccessible to consciousness. Such inaccessibility may arise because the material is no longer sampled from the set of to-be-recalled items, or, though sampled, its representation is not complete enough to be recovered into consciousness. In 2 experiments, it was examined ...
