Three groups of children (mean ages: 3 years, 4 months; 4 years, 9 months: and 6 years, 11 months) and a group of college students were t...
متن کاملDoes visual expertise improve visual recognition memory?
In general, humans have impressive recognition memory for previously viewed pictures. Many people spend years becoming experts in highly specialized image sets.

Sleep can integrate information into existing memory networks, look for common patterns and distil overarching rules, or simply stabilize and strengthen the memory exactly as it was learned. Recent research has shown that sleep facilitates abstraction of gist information as well as integration across multiple memories, insight into hidden solutions, and even the ability to make creative connect...
متن کاملContextual interference in recognition memory with age.
Previous behavioral research suggests that although elderly adults' memory benefits from supportive context, misleading or irrelevant contexts produce greater interference. In the present study, we use event-related fMRI to investigate age differences when processing contextual information to make recognition judgments. Twenty-one young and twenty elderly incidentally encoded pictures of object...

We measure the rate at which new code has been introduced and the rate at which vulnerabilities have been reported over the last 7.5 years and fifteen versions. We learn that 61% of the lines of code in today’s OpenBSD are foundational: they were introduced prior to the release of...
