Semantic relatedness retroactively boosts memory and promotes memory interdependence across episodes [PDF]
eLife, 2022 Two fundamental issues in memory research concern when later experiences strengthen or weaken initial memories and when the two memories become linked or remain independent. A promising candidate for explaining these issues is semantic relatedness. Here,

Semantic Relatedness Emerges in Deep Convolutional Neural Networks Designed for Object Recognition [PDF]
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2021 Human not only can effortlessly recognize objects, but also characterize object categories into semantic concepts with a nested hierarchical structure. One dominant view is that top-down conceptual guidance is necessary to form such hierarchy.

Creative connections: the neural correlates of semantic relatedness are associated with creativity [PDF]
Communications BiologyThe associative theory of creativity proposes that creative ideas result from connecting remotely related concepts in memory. Previous research found that higher creative individuals exhibit a more flexible organization of semantic memory, generate more ...

Semantic relatedness and the efficacy of retrieval practice [PDF]
npj Science of LearningRetrieval practice (i.e., practice testing) enhances recall relative to other study methods, but it is still unclear when it helps most. Here, we ask if testing is more beneficial for weakly or strongly related word pairs. Participants studied word pairs

Distribution of visuo-attentional resources while reading multiple words. [PDF]
PLoS ONERecent studies have investigated the role of semantic processing in the parafovea using the Rapid Parallel Visual Presentation (RPVP) paradigm, which involves the simultaneous presentation of two words, one in the fovea (W1) and one in the parafovea (W2).
