OBJECTIVE This study investigated the effect of Parkinson's disease (PD) on event-based prospective memory tasks with varying demand on (1) the amount of strategic attentional monitoring required for intention retrieval (prospective component), and (2) the retrospective memory processes required to remember the contents of the intention or the entire constellation of prospective memory tasks. ...

This study examines the event-related brain potential (ERP) correlates of retrieval processes in prospective and retrospective memory (i.e., recognition and cued-recall). In contrast to previous research that has compared performance on tasks measuring prospective and retrospective memory, the stimulus materials and encoding and response demands of the prospective and retrospective components o...

The Prospective and Retrospective Memory Questionnaire (PRMQ) has been reported to have acceptable reliability and a tripartite structure, including a general memory factor and specific Prospective and Retrospective Memory factors. The Taiwanese version of the PRMQ was examined in an adult sample (n = 269, age range: 19-95). The 11-item Taiwanese PRMQ demonstrated acceptable internal consistenc...

BACKGROUND Anemia in the postnatal period is a common problem, which has been subject of research recently. Though, it is a common problem, it is a less researched topic in India. Hence, this study was undertaken. AIM The aim was to know the clinic-social factors associated with anemia in the postpartum period. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a retrospective record-based study conducted in Go...

"This paper details the authors' selection, design, and use of a life history calendar (LHC) to collect retrospective life course data. A sample of nine hundred [U.S.] 23-year-olds, originally interviewed in 1980, were asked about the incidence and timing of various life events in the nine years since their 15th birthday.... The following aspects of the LHC are described: (a) the concept, uses...

Prospective memory (PM), the ability to remember carry out future intentions, is critical for children’s daily functioning. The Executive Framework of PM Development predicts that executive function should drive young development once a sufficient level retrospective has developed. In two studies, we investigated predictors in 3- 6-year-old children using behavioural and parent-report measures....

In this work we introduce a theory of circuits of finite memory retrospective operators to fully characterize the class of finite memory retrospective operators, expanding the theory developed by B. A. Trakhtenbrot and A. Rabinovich about automata over continuous time. A physical device, in which complex transformations are implemented, is usually an appropriate combination of elementary parts ...

Prospective memory slips (forgetting to do something) are as part of everyday memory failure as retrospective complaints (forgetting a past event). The extent to which genes influence prospective and retrospective memory is so far unclear. This study aims to quantify the relative genetic and environmental influences on such memory slips and seeks to identify QTL's with the first genome-wide sca...

A robust inconsistent handed advantage exists for episodic retrospective memory processes. The current study was undertaken to test whether this handedness difference extends to the domain of prospective memory (PM). Two studies, one based on a self-report measure (the Prospective and Retrospective Memory Questionnaire) and the second involving a performance-based test (Memory for Intentions Sc...
