It is adaptive to remember animates, particularly animate agents, because they play an important role in survival and reproduction. Yet, surprisingly, the role of animacy in mnemonic processing has received little direct attention in the literature.

If memory evolved, sculpted by the processes of natural selection, then its operating characteristics likely bear the “footprints” of ancestral selection pressures. Psychologists rarely consider this possibility and generally ignore functional questions in their attempt to understand how human memory works.

Adaptive control of working memory
Cognition, 2022The present study investigated mechanisms of adaptive cognitive control in working memory (WM). WM is conceived as a system for short-term maintenance, updating and manipulation of representations required for goal-directed action. Adaptive control refers to the finding of flexible adjustments of control processes based on conflict.

Memory is essential to adaptive behavior because it allows past experience to guide choices. Emerging findings indicate that the neurotransmitter dopamine, which signals motivationally important events, also modulates the hippocampus, a crucial brain system for long-term memory. Here we review recent evidence that highlights multiple mechanisms whereby

Immunological Reviews, 2006
Summary: Immunological memory, as provided by antibodies, depends on the continued presence of antibody‐secreting cells, such as long‐lived plasma cells of the bone marrow. Survival niches for these memory plasma cells are limited in number. In an established immune system, acquisition of new plasma cells, generated in response to recent pathogenic ...

Adaptive Bidirectional Associative Memories
Applied Optics, 1987Bidirectionality, forward and backward information flow, is introduced in neural networks to produce two-way associative search for stored stimulus-response associations (A(i),B(i)). Two fields of neurons, F(A) and F(B), are connected by an n x p synaptic marix M.

Abstract This chapter provides an overview of the current volume, Interdisciplinary Perspectives and Advances in Understanding Adaptive Memory, and summarizes the main findings within each of its four sections. Those sections focus on the following: survival scenarios and memory; anthropological and comparative perspectives; age-related ...
