The paper evaluates the psychometric properties of the Autobiographical Interview in healthy adults, finding strong reliability and convergent validity but limited support for its two-factor structure.

Agency as a Bridge to Form Associative Memories

This paper shows that when individuals have agency in a situation, they form stronger memories for all items involved, including associations between contestants, doors, and prizes.

It's all about location: reliance on spatial rather than visual context when trying to remember

The paper shows that when recalling visual information, participants gaze at the location of the remembered object rather than the color, indicating a reliance on spatial rather than visual context.

The contribution of eye movements to memory retrieval depends on the visual input

This study shows that eye movements aid memory retrieval only when the visual context matches the encoding context, suggesting their visual consequences, not the motor action, enhance memory.

Establishing a causal role for left ventrolateral prefrontal cortex in value-directed memory encoding with high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation

This study uses HD-tDCS to show that left VLPFC enhances memory encoding of high-value items by boosting semantic processing.

The paper shows that boundary extension depends on depth-of-field, with naturalistic DOF enhancing the illusion in distant views.

Entering into a self-regulated learning mode prevents detrimental effect of feedback removal on memory

The paper shows that self-regulated learning prevents memory decline from feedback removal in DA-dependent learning but not in DA-independent learning.

Spatiotemporal dynamics of memory encoding and memory retrieval states

The paper identifies spatiotemporal dynamics of memory encoding and retrieval states using microstate analysis of EEG data from a mnemonic task.

Openness to experience is associated with neural and performance measures of memory in older adults

The paper examines how Openness to Experience relates to memory performance and neural activity in older adults, finding that higher Openness is linked to better memory and preserved brain network function.

Disruption of anterior temporal lobe reduces distortions in memory from category knowledge

This study shows that disrupting the anterior temporal lobe reduces memory distortion caused by category knowledge, but not error in recalling specific details.
