Modeling Cued Recall and Memory Illusions as a Result of Structure Mapping
نویسنده
چکیده
A model of cued recall is proposed. Its basic assumption is that processes of structural mapping and analogical transfer lie at the core of human cognition. Recall is viewed as a result of construction of a new episode, analogical to the old episode. The response items emerge from dynamic creation and competition of various hypotheses about what has happened. Thus, some psychological data about constructive nature of human memory are explained as resulting from constraints that are natural for the process of analogical mapping. Several simulations tested the model from different aspects. Finally, the role of connectedness of the episodes for the quality of their recall is explored in more details.

Objective(s): Behavioral and neuroimaging studies have shown that transcranial direct current stimulation, as a non-invasive neuromodulatory technique, beyond regional effects can modify functionally interconnected remote cortical and subcortical areas. In this study, we hypothesized that the induced changes in cortical excitability following the application of cathodal or anodal tDCS over the ...
متن کاملInvestigating the structure and age invariance of episodic memory across the adult lifespan.
The structure of episodic memory was investigated by assessing different modalities of material (verbal, figural, and spatial) and different types of tests (recall, cued recall, and recognition). A 3-factor model that distinguished among modalities of material was found to be the best representation of memory and the verbal, figural, and spatial memory factors exhibiting construct validity. Thi...

متن کاملComparison of the neural correlates of retrieval success in tests of cued recall and recognition memory.
The neural correlates of successful retrieval on tests of word stem recall and recognition memory were compared. In the recall test, subjects viewed word stems, half of which were associated with studied items and half with unstudied items, and for each stem attempted to recall a corresponding study word. In the recognition test, old/new judgments were made on old and new words. The neural corr...
