Antidepressant suppression of REM and spindle sleep impairs hippocampus-dependent learning and memory but fosters striatal-dependent strategies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
REM sleep enhances hippocampus-dependent associative memory but has little impact on striatal-dependent procedural learning. Antidepressant medications like desipramine (DMI) inhibit rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep but it is little understood how ...

A novel, rapidly acquired and persistent spatial memory task that induces immediate early gene expression

open access: yesBehavioral and Brain Functions, 2010
Background The Morris water maze task is a hippocampus-dependent learning and memory test that typically takes between 3 days to 2 weeks of training. This task is used to assess spatial learning and induces the expression of genes known to be crucial to ...

Exploring motor skill acquisition in bimanual coordination: insights from navigating a novel maze task

open access: yesScientific Reports
In this study, we introduce a novel maze task designed to investigate naturalistic motor learning in bimanual coordination. We developed and validated an extended set of movement primitives tailored to capture the full spectrum of scenarios encountered ...

Effect of zerumbone on scopolamine‐induced memory impairment and anxiety‐like behaviours in rats

open access: yesAlzheimer’s & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions, 2019
Introduction We investigated the effects of zerumbone (1 and 10 mg/kg) against hyperactivity, anxiety and memory impairment in scopolamine‐induced dementia in Sprague‐Dawley rats.

Progressive Neural Networks

open access: yes, 2016
Learning to solve complex sequences of tasks--while both leveraging transfer and avoiding catastrophic forgetting--remains a key obstacle to achieving human-level intelligence. The progressive networks approach represents a step forward in this direction:

Will the exploratory behavior of lobsters decrease as they become familiar with their environment? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Previous studies have shown that most lobsters have a home range in which they reside on a daily basis. The tendency for lobsters to reside in a particular area suggests that they have the ability to learn the characteristics of an area using exploratory

Development of a Student Worksheet Based on Creative Thinking Using Maze Chase Wordwall for Natural and Social Sciences

open access: yesMimbar Sekolah Dasar
This study is motivated by observations indicating that students exhibit low creative thinking skills in learning natural and social sciences. Additionally, there is a lack of variation in teaching methods, and the use of technology in learning is not ...
