Pollen elicits proboscis extension but does not reinforce PER learning in honeybees [PDF]

, 2013
The function of pollen as a reward for foraging bees is little understood, though there is evidence to suggest that it can reinforce associations with visual and olfactory floral cues.

Evaluating a practical approach to targeted memory reactivation by Vedic Chants and Indian Classical Music during daytime nap

National Journal of Physiology, Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 2020
Background: Among the multiple functions of sleep, its role in the establishment of memories seems to be particularly important. Spontaneous memory reactivation during sleep can promote consolidation and thus shape the memory storehouse that each ...

Normative data from linear and nonlinear quantile regression in CANTAB: Cognition in mid‐to‐late life in an epidemiological sample

Alzheimer’s & Dementia: Diagnosis, Assessment & Disease Monitoring, 2019
Introduction Normative cognitive data can help to distinguish pathological decline from normal aging. This study presents normative data from the Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery, using linear regression and nonlinear quantile ...

Mechanisms of memory retrieval in slow-wave sleep : memory retrieval in slow-wave sleep [PDF]

, 2017
Study Objectives: Memories are strengthened during sleep. The benefits of sleep for memory can be enhanced by re-exposing the sleeping brain to auditory cues; a technique known as targeted memory reactivation (TMR).

Writing superiority in cued recall

Frontiers in Psychology, 2013
In list learning paradigms with free recall, written recall has been found to be less susceptible to intrusions of related concepts than spoken recall when the list items had been visually presented.

Better Phonological Short-Term Memory Is Linked to Improved Cortical Memory Representations for Word Forms and Better Word Learning

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2020
Language learning relies on both short-term and long-term memory. Phonological short-term memory (pSTM) is thought to play an important role in the learning of novel word forms.

Monkeys choose, but do not learn, through exclusion [PDF]

Animal Behavior and Cognition, 2018
Human children will select a novel object from among a group of known objects when presented with a novel object name. This disambiguation by exclusion may facilitate new name-object mappings and may play a role in the rapid word learning shown by young ...

Correlates of Orthographic Learning in Swedish Children With Cochlear Implants

Frontiers in Psychology, 2019
This study set out to explore the cognitive and linguistic correlates of orthographic learning in a group of 32 deaf and hard of hearing children with cochlear implants, to better understand the factors that affect the development of fluent reading in ...

Conditional knock out of transcription factor CTCF in excitatory neurons induces cognitive deficiency

Molecular Brain, 2021
CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) is a transcription factor that is involved in organizing chromatin structure. A reduction of CTCF expression is known to develop distinct clinical features.

Different Roles for Honey Bee Mushroom Bodies and Central Complex in Visual Learning of Colored Lights in an Aversive Conditioning Assay

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2017
The honey bee is an excellent visual learner, but we know little about how and why it performs so well, or how visual information is learned by the bee brain.
