Training conditional discriminations with fixed and titrated delayed matching to sample in children [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In a series of experiments, we investigated the effects of delayed matching-to-sample (DMTS) on responding in accordance with stimulus equivalence in children. In Experiment 1, 20 participants were assigned to either 3 s or 6 s DMTS.

Hippocampal subfield and medial temporal cortical persistent activity during working memory reflects ongoing encoding

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2015
Previous neuroimaging studies support a role for the medial temporal lobes (MTL) in maintaining novel stimuli over brief working memory (WM) delays, and suggest delay period activity predicts subsequent memory.

A Method to Train Marmosets in Visual Working Memory Task and Their Performance

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2018
Learning and memory processes are similarly organized in humans and monkeys; therefore, monkeys can be ideal models for analyzing human aging processes and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease.

Past trauma and future choices: Differences in discounting in low-income, urban African Americans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BackgroundExposure to traumatic events is surprisingly common, yet little is known about its effect on decision making beyond the fact that those with post-traumatic stress disorder are more likely to have substance-abuse problems.

Electrophysiological evidence of a delay in the visual recognition process in young children

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015
The present study analyzes the development of the visual recognition processing of the relevant stimulus in a Delayed Match-To-Sample task during the matching phase. To do so, Electroencephalograms of 170 subjects between 6 and 26 years old were recorded.

A comparison of the development of audiovisual integration in children with autism spectrum disorders and typically developing children [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This study aimed to investigate the development of audiovisual integration in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Audiovisual integration was measured using the McGurk effect in children with ASD aged 7–16 years and typically developing ...

Perception of global facial geometry is modulated through experience [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Identification of personally familiar faces is highly efficient across various viewing conditions. While the presence of robust facial representations stored in memory is considered to aid this process, the mechanisms underlying invariant identification ...

The Differential Outcomes Effect in Pigeons (Columba livia): Is It Truly Anticipatory? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
We used delay-interval interference to investigate the nature of the differential outcomes effect (DOE) in pigeons. Birds were trained on a delayed matching-to-sample (DMS) task under either common outcome or differential outcome conditions, and then ...
