Episodic memory, semantic memory, and amnesia

Hippocampus, 1998
Episodic memory and semantic memory are two types of declarative memory. There have been two principal views about how this distinction might be reflected in the organization of memory functions in the brain. One view, that episodic memory and semantic memory are both dependent on the integrity of medial temporal lobe and midline diencephalic ...

Semantic ambiguity and memory

Journal of Memory and Language, 2021
Abstract The emotional ambiguity hypothesis posits that as items are encoded, people process the ambiguity as well as the intensity of their valence. The hypothesis predicts three signature effects, all of which have been reported: ambiguity-driven declines in valence-arousal correlations, a quadratic law relating perceived valence to valence ...

Semantic and episodic memory in aphasia

Neuropsychologia, 1996
Within the framework of the distinction between episodic and semantic memory, it has been argued that these two memory Systems are organised in a hierarchical way. The hierarchical hypothesis assumes that episodic memory is a specific subsystem of semantic memory and therefore implies that episodic memory cannot exist without semantic memory.

Semantic Memory and Psychological Semantics

1974
Publisher Summary This chapter presents a theoretical approach to semantic memory, which is applicable to a wide range of semantic phenomena. The chapter discusses the topic of semantic memory in psycholinguistic perspective and then demonstrates how semantic propositions are verified.

Semantic memory in object use

Neuropsychologia, 2009
We studied five patients with semantic memory disorders, four with semantic dementia and one with herpes simplex virus encephalitis, to investigate the involvement of semantic conceptual knowledge in object use. Comparisons between patients who had semantic deficits of different severity, as well as the follow-up, showed that the ability to use objects

The Selective Impairment of Semantic Memory

Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1975
The selective impairment of semantic memory is described in three patients with diffuse cerebrallesions. These patients, selected on the basis of a failure to recognize or identify common objects (agnosia for objects), were investigated in detail.

Semantic Memory

2008
Semantic memory refers to the enormous storehouse of information that humans have readily accessible. This chapter provides a general overview of both theory development and empirical research investigating the nature of semantic memory. Rather than focusing on one or two theoretical approaches, we attempt to provide an overview of multiple ways of ...

Semantic Memory

2006
Publisher Summary This chapter presents the theory of semantic memory. The Quillian semantic memory is a theory of human long-term memory, and second a series of computer simulations of certain types of language processing. A Quillian semantic memory consisted of a set of entries, interconnected with arbitrarily complex bindings.

Neural substrates of semantic memory

Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society, 2007
Semantic memory is described as the storage of knowledge, concepts, and information that is common and relatively consistent across individuals (e.g., memory of what is a cup). These memories are stored in multiple sensorimotor modalities and cognitive systems throughout the brain (e.g., how a cup is held and manipulated, the texture of a cup's ...
