This study investigates how prediction errors influence the temporal organization of episodic memories through a 3-day movie viewing paradigm, finding that prediction errors lead to faster recall and reorganization of unexpected sequences.

Age-related dedifferentiation and hyperdifferentiation of perceptual and mnemonic representations

The paper investigates age-related changes in perceptual and mnemonic representations using fMRI, finding dedifferentiation in sensory features and hyperdifferentiation in categorical features in older adults.

Feature-specific reaction times reveal a semanticisation of memories over time and with repeated remembering

The paper shows that repeated recall increases the semanticization of memories, as evidenced by longer perceptual-conceptual reaction time gaps over time.

Disrupted object-scene semantics boost scene recall but diminish object recall in drawings from memory

This study investigates how semantic inconsistencies in visual scenes affect memory recall, finding that inconsistent scenes are remembered more often but with less object detail.

Spatiotemporal context modulates encoding and retrieval of overlapping events

The paper investigates how temporal overlap between events affects memory interference and retrieval, showing that greater overlap impairs memory for past events when encoding present events.

Aging Reduces EEG Markers of Recognition Despite Intact Performance: Implications for Forensic Memory Detection

The paper shows that aging reduces EEG markers of recognition in forensic memory detection tasks, despite similar behavioral performance, suggesting limitations in using EEG for forensic assessments in older adults.

The effect of stress on memory for temporal context

This study investigates how acute stress affects temporal context memory, finding that stress increases memory generalization but does not significantly impact memory accuracy across different temporal granularities.

Adaptive repulsion of long-term memory representations is triggered by event similarity

The paper shows that similar events trigger adaptive repulsion in long-term memory, reducing interference and improving memory accuracy.

When Gaze-Pattern Similarity May Interfere With Future Memory

This study shows that higher gaze-pattern similarity between stimuli correlates with worse future memory, independent of motivation but dependent on perceptual overlap.

Neural correlates of episodic memory modulated by temporally delayed rewards

This study investigates how temporally delayed rewards affect episodic memory through fMRI, finding that delayed rewards enhance memory performance by increasing encoding-retrieval overlap.

Cue overlap supports pre-retrieval selection in episodic memory: ERP evidence

The paper uses ERP data to show that pre-retrieval selection in memory is supported by cue overlap between retrieval cues and targeted memory traces, despite better memory for pictures.

The human hippocampus plays a time-limited role in retrieving autobiographical memories

This study uses overt spoken recall and fMRI to show that hippocampal activity is temporally graded, supporting the standard model of memory consolidation.

In Poetry, if Meter has to Help Memory, it Takes its Time

The paper tests if poetic meter aids memory by manipulating meter components in Italian poetry and finding mixed effects on memory and reaction times.

Neural Correlates of Reactivation and Vividness Reveal Separable Contributions to Objective and Subjective Measures of Episodic Memory

The paper compares neural reactivation and vividness judgments in episodic memory using meta-analytic methods across four neuroimaging datasets, finding shared and distinct neural correlates.

This study shows that mnemonic training improves durable memory formation by reducing task-based brain activation and enhancing consolidation.

Visual mental imagery engages the left fusiform gyrus, but not the early visual cortex: a meta-analysis of neuroimaging evidence

This paper presents a meta-analysis and Bayesian analysis showing that visual mental imagery activates the left fusiform gyrus but not early visual cortex, proposing a revised neural model.

The paper examines how expected and unexpected novel stimuli affect encoding-linked pupil responses and subsequent memory, showing opposite effects on memory type and strength.

Trial-by-trial fluctuations in post-stimulus attention during memory encoding predict subsequent associative context memory performance.

This study shows that post-stimulus attention delays during memory encoding predict poorer associative context memory performance in humans.
