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.

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 ...

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 ...

Spatial memory in foraging games [PDF]

open access: yesCognition, 2016
Foraging and foraging-like processes are found in spatial navigation, memory, visual search, and many other search functions in human cognition and behavior. Foraging is commonly theorized using either random or correlated movements based on Lévy walks, or a series of decisions to remain or leave proximal areas known as "patches".

Visual-spatial Working Memory Span of Indonesian Children with Deafness in Oral, Total, and Sign Language Communication Methods

open access: yesPsychological Research on Urban Society, 2020
Children with hearing impairment or deafness experience cognitive function delays but not limited visual-spatial working memory, which is commonly used to solve mathematical problems. Previous studies have discovered that visual or spatial working memory

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.

Effects of HDAC inhibitors on spatial memory and memory extinction in SPS-induced PTSD rats

open access: yesResearch in Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2020
Background and purpose: Neurobiological changes in memory processes seem to play a role in the pathophysiology of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Memory itself is influenced by PTSD, too. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDAIs) have shown promising

A pathway for spatial memory encoding [PDF]

open access: yesLearning & Behavior, 2016
The medial prefrontal cortex has been shown to play a role for rodents in successful completion of tasks that require spatial memory, but the pathways responsible for the transmission of spatial information to the mPFC, and the nature and timing of such information, are unknown. Recently, Spellman, Rigotti, Ahmari, Fusi, Gogos, and Gordon (Nature, 522,

The Effect of Working Memory Updating Ability on Spatial Insight Problem Solving: Evidence From Behavior and Eye Movement Studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2019
It still remains uncertain whether working memory updating ability influences spatial insight problem solving and whether working memory updating ability plays a role in the representation restructuring phase.
