This study shows that anterior hippocampal temporal autocorrelation increases with age and supports the development of flexible navigation through changing environments.

The paper shows that children and adults use different neural mechanisms for memory-based inference, with adults using a direct retrieval mechanism involving the angular gyrus.

The paper shows that hippocampal representations of temporal sequences reorganize during development, with increased temporal scale and bidirectional integration.

The paper uses fMRI and computational models to identify neural mechanisms for memory creation and updating during learning, finding distinct hippocampal involvement in learning outcomes.

The paper proposes a uniform sampling model to explain non-uniform memory of narrative stories, showing it outperforms surprise-based theories.

The paper shows children use differentiated hippocampal representations for related memories, while adults use integrated representations in medial prefrontal cortex, supporting different memory reinstatement strategies across development.

This study examines how hippocampal subfield microstructure develops and relates to two types of inference tasks in humans.

The paper shows that neural representations of temporal community structure in hippocampus and precuneus predict inductive reasoning decisions based on learned object relationships.

This study shows that neural compression in the ventromedial prefrontal cortex during learning predicts the ability to focus on relevant information.

The paper shows that predictable contexts reduce pruning of existing memories and encoding of new memories, while unpredictable contexts lead to pruning.

This study evaluates two semi-automated hippocampal subfield segmentation methods across different age groups in a pediatric sample, finding negligible age-related differences in subfield validity.
