Altered pathways for auditory discrimination and recognition memory in preterm infants.
Preterm infants are at increased risk for cognitive disorders, including impairments in recognition memory. This study evaluated the effects of extreme prematurity on the neural pathway for auditory recognition memory using event-related potentials (ERPs), a neurophysiological technique widely used in cognitive neuroscience. ERPs were recorded at term postmenstrual age in 35 preterm infants bor...
متن کاملBrain damage in preterm infants: etiological pathways.
Preterm newborns represent a high-risk population for brain damage, primarily affecting the white matter, and for related neurodevelopmental disabilities. Determinants of brain damage have been extensively investigated, but there are still many controversies on how these factors can influence the developing brain and provoke damage. The concept of etiological pathway, instead of a single determ...
متن کاملAnatomical Pathways for Auditory Memory in Primates
Episodic memory or the ability to store context-rich information about everyday events depends on the hippocampal formation (entorhinal cortex, subiculum, presubiculum, parasubiculum, hippocampus proper, and dentate gyrus). A substantial amount of behavioral-lesion and anatomical studies have contributed to our understanding of the organization of how visual stimuli are retained in episodic mem...
متن کاملDecay of auditory memory in vowel discrimination.
Two experiments on same-different vowel discrimination are reported. In each, the main variable was the duration of a silent delay between the two items being judged. As would be expected from the assumption that such judgements depend at least partly on auditory sensory memory, longer delays led to poorer discrimination than shorter delays. The auditory memory loss seems to be asymptotic at ab...
متن کاملAuditory steady-state responses and speech feature discrimination in infants.
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to determine whether there was a correlation between auditory steady-state responses (ASSRs) for complex toneburst stimuli and speech feature discrimination (SFD) abilities in young infants. STUDY SAMPLE Seventeen infants (mean age = 9.4 months) and 21 adults (mean age = 27 years) with normal hearing had ASSR and SFD tests. DATA COLLECTION The ASSR test emp...
