Evaluation of Spatial Memory in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesMajallah-i Zanān, Māmā̓ī va Nāzā̓ī-i Īrān, 2020
Introduction: Polycystic ovary syndrome is a common endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age. This syndrome may affect cognitive function and impair spatial memory.

Mathematics Students Demonstrate Superior Visuo-Spatial Working Memory to Humanities Students Under Conditions of Low Central Executive Processing Load

open access: yesJournal of Numerical Cognition, 2019
Previous research has demonstrated that working memory performance is linked to mathematics achievement. Most previous studies have involved children and arithmetic rather than more advanced forms of mathematics.

Egocentric and allocentric spatial memory in healthy aging: performance on real-world tasks

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2019
Although normal aging has been related to several cognitive difficulties, other processes have been studied less, such as spatial memory. Our aim was to compare egocentric and allocentric memory in an elderly population using ecological tasks.

Spatial memory for vertical locations. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2019
Most studies on spatial memory refer to the horizontal plane, leaving an open question as to whether findings generalize to vertical spaces where gravity and the visual upright of our surrounding space are salient orientation cues. In three experiments, we examined which reference frame is used to organize memory for vertical locations: the one based ...

Inhibition of connexin43 hemichannels impairs spatial short-term memory without affecting spatial working memory

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016
Astrocytes are active players in higher brain function as they can release gliotransmitters, which are essential for synaptic plasticity. Various mechanisms have been proposed for gliotransmission, including vesicular mechanisms as well as non-vesicular ...

Search Strategy Analysis of 5xFAD Alzheimer Mice in the Morris Water Maze Reveals Sex- and Age-Specific Spatial Navigation Deficits

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
Spatial disorientation and navigational impairments are not only some of the first memory deficits in Alzheimer’s disease, but are also very disease-specific. In rodents, the Morris Water Maze is used to investigate spatial navigation and memory.

Spatial memory, recognition memory, and the hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004
There is wide agreement that spatial memory is dependent on the integrity of the hippocampus, but the importance of the hippocampus for nonspatial tasks, including tasks of object recognition memory is not as clear. We examined the relationship between hippocampal lesion size and both spatial memory and object recognition memory in rats. Spatial memory

Spatial language influences memory for spatial scenes [PDF]

open access: yesMemory & Cognition, 2007
Does language influence recognition for spatial scenes? In Experiments 1 and 2, participants viewed ambiguous pictures, with or without spatial sentences. In a yes-no recognition task, only the spatial sentences group made more false alarms toward the center of the spatial category than in the other direction; three other comparison groups showed no ...
