Semantic structure and episodic memory
In remembering a list of words, subjects’ order of recall can reveal the influence of both semantic and temporal associations among items. In this chapter, we examine how well measures of semantic relatedness (e.g., Landauer & Dumais, 1997; Steyvers, Shiffrin, & Nelson, 2004) predict the order of subject’s recalls. Analysis of recall transitions reveal that subtle variations in semantic related...
متن کاملCOMMENTARY Episodic Memory, Semantic Memory, and Amnesia
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 structures, predicts that amnesic patients with medi...
متن کاملDifferential effects of early hippocampal pathology on episodic and semantic memory.
Global anterograde amnesia is described in three patients with brain injuries that occurred in one case at birth, in another by age 4, and in the third at age 9. Magnetic resonance techniques revealed bilateral hippocampal pathology in all three cases. Remarkably, despite their pronounced amnesia for the episodes of everyday life, all three patients attended mainstream schools and attained leve...
متن کاملAge differences in episodic memory, semantic memory, and priming: relationships to demographic, intellectual, and biological factors.
This study examined age differences in episodic memory, semantic memory, and priming using a random sample of 1,000 men and women from 10 age groups (35, 40, 45, . . . 80 years). The main purpose was to determine whether an age effect existed after differences on various demographic, intellectual, and biological factors had been controlled for. The simple correlations of age with episodic and s...
متن کاملRetrieval Blocks in Episodic and Semantic Memory*
A retrieval block refers to impaired accessibility in retrieving target information when semantically related information is presented (or retrieved) prior to target retrieval. Research concerning retrieval blocks is reviewed in this paper. Evidence for such blocks occurs in a variety of situations, including both episodic and semantic memory tasks. Retrieval blocks have been most thoroughly st...
