Explaining semantic short-term memory deficits:evidence for the critical role of semantic control [PDF]

, 2011
Patients with apparently selective short-term memory (STM) deficits for semantic information have played an important role in developing multi-store theories of STM and challenge the idea that verbal STM is supported by maintaining activation in the ...

Revealing the Role of Divergent Thinking and Fluid Intelligence in Children’s Semantic Memory Organization

Journal of Intelligence, 2020
The current theories suggest the fundamental role of semantic memory in creativity, mediating bottom-up (divergent thinking) and top-down (fluid intelligence) cognitive processes.

Internet use, users, and cognition: on the cognitive relationships between Internet-based technology and Internet users

BMC Psychology, 2023
Background This study aims to investigate growing Internet use in relation to memory and cognition. Though literature reveals human capability to utilize the Internet as a transactive memory source, the formational mechanisms of such transactive memory ...

Semantic Memory Deficits in Low-educated Patients with Alzheimer's Disease

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2006
Although a deficit of semantic memory is evident in the dementia of the Alzheimer's type (DAT), the underlying neuropsychologic mechanism remains controversial.

Integrative and semantic relations equally alleviate age-related associative memory deficits [PDF]

, 2011
Two experiments compared effects of integrative and semantic relations between pairs of words on lexical and memory processes in old age. Integrative relations occur when two dissimilar and unassociated words are linked together to form a coherent phrase

Temporolimbic cortical volume is associated with semantic odor memory performance in aging

NeuroImage, 2020
Olfactory function, and specifically semantic olfactory memory (i.e., odor identification), has frequently been shown to predict cognitive functioning across multiple domains in old age.

Lost in semantic space: a multi-modal, non-verbal assessment of feature knowledge in semantic dementia [PDF]

, 2006
A novel, non-verbal test of semantic feature knowledge is introduced, enabling subordinate knowledge of four important concept attributes—colour, sound, environmental context and motion—to be individually probed.

Decreased meta-memory is associated with early tauopathy in cognitively unimpaired older adults

NeuroImage: Clinical, 2019
The ability to accurately judge memory efficiency (meta-memory monitoring) for newly learned (episodic) information, is decreased in older adults and even worse in Alzheimer's disease (AD), whereas no differences have been found for semantic meta-memory.

Patterns of regional brain hypometabolism associated with knowledge of semantic features and categories in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

, 2006
The study of semantic memory in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) has raised important questions about the representation of conceptual knowledge in the human brain.

A SEMantic and EPisodic Memory Test (SEMEP) Developed within the Embodied Cognition Framework: Application to Normal Aging, Alzheimer's Disease and Semantic Dementia

Frontiers in Psychology, 2017
Embodiment has highlighted the importance of sensory-motor components in cognition. Perception and memory are thus very tightly bound together, and episodic and semantic memories should rely on the same grounded memory traces.
