Semantic memory encompasses knowledge of objects, facts and words. A number of brain regions are probably involved, but the left infero-lateral temporal lobe appears to play a key role. The separability of semantic memory from episodic (or autobiographical) memory is a focus of current debate. Impaired semantic memory is a common feature of Alzheimer's

Abstract It is now established that selective disorders of semantic memory may arise after focal cerebral lesions. Debate and dissension remain on three principal issues: category specificity, the status of modality-dependent knowledge, and the stability and sufficiency of stored information.

Psychiatric Clinics of North America, 2005
The understanding of the neuroanatomic substrates and cognitive processes underlying memory functioning has improved dramatically during the past several decades. Animal studies and observations of patients who have brain diseases show that memory is not a unitary factor but instead can be parsed into overlapping but dissociable constructs; that ...

Abstract Understanding of the neural basis of memory function has advanced rapidly during the past few decades. Numerous neuropsychological and neurophysiological studies of memory function reveal a system of dissociable processes, not a unitary system.

, 2009 Several disorders may give rise to an amnesic syndrome in which memory and learning are disproportionately affected. Episodic memory is particularly affected, whereas the effects on semantic memory are more variable.

LEARNING AND MEMORY DISORDERS AND THEIR ASSESSMENT
Neuropsychologia, 1986Brain lesions cause memory to break down in several distinct ways in people. First, cortical lesions cause disturbances in short-term memory. Second, other cortical lesions disturb the retrieval of previously well-established semantic and episodic memories. Third, frontal cortex dysfunction seems to be related to a memory syndrome caused by a breakdown

Publisher Summary This chapter describes that the demand for clinical evaluation of memory disorders has increased. Although brief tests of general cognitive abilities, such as the mini-mental state examination (MMSE), have been used in practice for several decades, in particular as screens for dementia, they lack sensitivity to detect mild memory ...

[Memory systems and memory disorders].
La Revue du praticien, 2003Recent cognitive models suggest that memory has a complex structure, composed of several independent systems (working memory, and four long-term memory systems: episodic memory, semantic memory, perceptual representation system, and procedural memory). Furthermore, neuropsychological studies show that a brain lesion can selectively impair some systems ...

[Memory and memory disorders].
Acta neurologica Taiwanica, 2008Memory is a reconstructive process classified as explicit and implicit memory by level of awareness. Explicit memory is a conscious recollection of either episodic or semantic memory. Episodic memory is from personal experience and is context-specific while semantic memory refers to general knowledge.
