Should the medial temporal lobe (MTL) of primates--which includes allocortical structures such as the hippocampus, neocortical structures such as the parahippocampal cortex, and nuclear structures such as the basolateral amygdala--be considered a single "thing"? According to the prevailing view, here termed the reification theory, the answer is yes. According to this theory, the MTL functions a...

Abundant research finds that in young adults explicit learning (EL) is more dependent on the medial temporal lobes (MTL) whereas implicit learning (IL) is more dependent on the striatum. Using fMRI, we investigated age differences in each task and whether this differentiation is preserved in older adults. Results indicated that, while young recruited the MTL for EL and striatum for IL, both act...

Purpose Drawing on the social-cognitive and motivational literature of leadership, present study examines influence young adults' self-perceptions leadership their self-efficacy (LSE) motivation to lead (MTL) in future career. The authors further examine gender socio-economic status (SES) as important moderators proposed relationships. Design/methodology/approach investigation consists a two-st...

A multi-task learning (MTL) algorithm learns an inductive bias to learn several tasks together. MTL is incredibly pervasive in machine learning: it has natural connections to random effects models [5]; user preference prediction (including collaborative filtering) can be framed as MTL [6]; multi-class classification admits the popular one-vs-all and all-pairs MTL reductions; and MTL admits prov...

Intense debate surrounds the role of medial temporal lobe (MTL) structures in recognition memory. Using high-resolution fMRI and analyses of pattern similarity in humans, we examined the encoding computations subserved by MTL subregions. Specifically, we tested the theory that MTL cortex supports memory by encoding overlapping representations, whereas hippocampus supports memory by encoding pat...

Memory and perception have long been considered separate cognitive processes, and amnesia resulting from medial temporal lobe (MTL) damage is thought to reflect damage to a dedicated memory system. Recent work has questioned these views, suggesting that amnesia can result from impoverished perceptual representations in the MTL, causing an increased susceptibility to interference. Using a percep...

Metric Temporal Logic (MTL) is a real-time extension of Linear Temporal Logic that was proposed fifteen years ago and has since been extensively studied. Since the early 1990s, it has been widely believed that some very small fragments of MTL are undecidable (i.e., have undecidable satisfiability and model-checking problems). We recently showed that, on the contrary, some substantial and import...

The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is assumed to contribute to goal-directed episodic encoding by exerting cognitive control on medial temporal lobe (MTL) memory processes. However, it is thus far unclear to what extent the contribution of PFC-MTL interactions to memory manifests at a structural anatomical level. We combined functional magnetic resonance imaging and fiber tracking based on diffusion t...

The time-limited role of the medial temporal lobe (MTL) in human long-term memory is well known. However, there is still no direct neuroimaging evidence to confirm it. In this fMRI study, nine subjects were scanned while asked to recall the places they visited more than seven years ago (remote memories); and the places they visited recently (recent memories). We observed robust and dominant MTL...

Abstract This study highlighted how particular intersections of personal characteristics were related to Motivation Learn (MtL) among adults. MtL is a prerequisite for adult education and training participation. However, little known about across subpopulations due several methodological limitations. developed national profile by key that are defined combinations age, gender, level, literacy pr...
