In contrast, no significant oscillatory shift in the alpha band towards the left hemisphere was observed in the IPL when the visual stimulus was presented on the right side. These findings indicate that the spatial attention on the left side depends on oscillatory alpha activity in the right IPL, whereas that on the right side doesn't depend on either hemispheric alpha activity.

Thirty-five older adults were directed to intentionally link objects with unique background scenes during encoding. Subsequently, test objects were presented against either the reinstated or similar background scenes during a recognition memory task, where participants were required to identify whether the objects were old or new regardless of their background contexts. Event-related potentials (ERP) were recorded to uncover the electrophysiological correlates of specific associative episodic memory. Behavioral results revealed higher memory sensitivity for object recognition when the background scenes were reinstated than when those were similar in older adults. ERP results indicated that older adults exhibited a more prominent fronto-centrally distributed positivity during object recognition in the reinstated than in similar contexts.

Past literature demonstrates the mental rotation of hands in this task involves implicit MI (i.e., where MI occurs spontaneously in the absence of explicit instructions). During the task, active (Day A; 120% resting motor threshold) or sham (Day B; placebo) neuronavigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) was applied to the left IPL (location determined from past neuroimaging work) on 50% of trials at 250, 500, or 750ms post-stimulus onset, corresponding to different stages of MI. A/B days were randomized across participants. Linear mixed effects (LME) modelling conducted on reaction time and accuracy revealed that longer reaction times were observed when TMS was delivered at 750ms after trial onset, and more greatly for active vs. sham stimulation. This effect was exacerbated for palm-vs. back-view stimuli and for left vs. right hands. Accuracy overall was decreased for active vs. sham stimulation, and to a greater extent for palm-vs. back-view stimuli. Findings suggest that the left IPL is involved in image transformation.

Judgment of Learning (JOL), a metacognitive judgment, is commonly used to measure this ability. An ongoing debate questions whether JOL is an outcome of an inferential or recollective experience, as suggested by different hypotheses regarding the underlying cognitive mechanisms of this judgment. To address this question through a neuroscientific perspective, we aimed to investigate the temporal dynamic of JOL adopting event-related potential (ERP) methodology. Seventy-two young adults participated in an episodic memory task involving word-pairs as stimuli. Their JOLs were obtained through categorical choices in a delayed condition. Additionally, their memory performance was tested in the recognition phase. ERP components were compared for different JOL levels, as well as for the hit responses in the recognition test according to their JOL levels. The analyses showed that JOL processes are observable within an early time window after stimulus presentation, as evidenced by elicitation of the P100, N100, P200, N200, and P300 components across all JOL levels. However, only the amplitude of the N100 varied among these levels. A negative ERP component with 330–500 ms latency was also evident for all JOL levels in the central and parietal electrodes, which did not differ in amplitude. The analyses of the recognition phase ERPs showed that the hit responses did not exhibit a significant difference in the familiarity-related mid-frontal old/new effect (FN400) amplitude; however, those with high level of JOL elicited recollection-related parietal old-new effect with a smaller amplitude. These findings support both hypotheses suggesting that JOL is influenced by heuristics and the retrievability of information.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":19279,"journal":{"name":"Neuropsychologia","volume":"204 ","pages":"Article 109011"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142400856","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Tests of remote memory indicated at least some capacity to retrieve specific details. To test his anterograde memory, he was taken on a tour of the NIH Clinical Center, with unique events occurring at each of ten specific locations. His memory for these events was tested after 1 h, and again after fifteen months. Initially, D.C. could not recall having participated in the tour, even when cued with photographs of specific places he had visited. However, he achieved 90% accuracy on a forced choice recognition test of old and new objects he encountered on the tour, and his recognition of these objects remained intact over a year later when he was tested once again. Subsequent recognition memory tests using novel picture stimuli in a standard laboratory-style computer task resulted in chance-level performance across multiple test formats and stimulus categories.

We systematically assessed a diverse set of rhythm perception and production abilities including time and beat perception and finger-tapping tasks. Neuropsychological tests were applied to assess separable cognitive functions. Using multiple regression analyses we show that lower variability in aligning movements to a pacing sequence was predicted by better inhibitory control and better working memory performance. Working memory performance also predicted lower variability of rhythmic movements in the absence of an external pacing sequence and better anticipatory timing to sequences with gradual tempo changes. Importantly, these predictors remained significant for all regression models when controlling for other cognitive variables (i.e., cognitive flexibility, information processing speed, and verbal learning ability) and potential confounders (i.e., age, symptom strength of depression, manual dexterity, duration of illness, severity of cognitive impairment, and musical experience). Thus, all rhythm production abilities were significantly predicted by measures of executive functions. In contrast, rhythm perception abilities (time perception/beat perception) were not predicted by executive functions in this study. Our results, enhancing the understanding of cognitive underpinnings of rhythmic abilities in individuals with neurocognitive deficits, may be a first mandatory step to further potential therapeutic implications of rhythm-based interventions in neuropsychological rehabilitation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":19279,"journal":{"name":"Neuropsychologia","volume":"204 ","pages":"Article 109009"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142392103","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
