Mechanisms supporting superior source memory for familiar items: a multi-voxel pattern analysis study.
Recent cognitive research has revealed better source memory performance for familiar relative to novel stimuli. Here we consider two possible explanations for this finding. The source memory advantage for familiar stimuli could arise because stimulus novelty induces attention to stimulus features at the expense of contextual processing, resulting in diminished overall levels of contextual proce...
متن کاملA critique of multi-voxel pattern analysis
Multi-voxel pattern analysis (MVPA) is a popular analytical technique in neuroscience that involves identifying patterns in fMRI BOLD signal data that are predictive of task conditions. But the technique is also frequently used to make inferences about the regions of the brain that are most important to the tasks in question, and our analysis shows that this is a mistake. MVPA does not provide ...
متن کاملListening for Recollection: A Multi-Voxel Pattern Analysis of Recognition Memory Retrieval Strategies
Recent studies of recognition memory indicate that subjects can strategically vary how much they rely on recollection of specific details vs. feelings of familiarity when making recognition judgments. One possible explanation of these results is that subjects can establish an internally directed attentional state ("listening for recollection") that enhances retrieval of studied details; fluctua...
متن کاملMulti-Voxel Pattern Analysis of fMRI Data
The central goal of cognitive neuroscience is to understand how information is processed in the brain. To accomplish this goal, researchers studying human cognition are increasingly relying on multi-voxel pattern analysis (MVPA); this method involves analyzing spatially distributed (multi-voxel) patterns of functional MRI activity, with the goal of decoding the information that is represented a...
متن کاملReliability of dissimilarity measures for multi-voxel pattern analysis
Representational similarity analysis of activation patterns has become an increasingly important tool for studying brain representations. The dissimilarity between two patterns is commonly quantified by the correlation distance or the accuracy of a linear classifier. However, there are many different ways to measure pattern dissimilarity and little is known about their relative reliability. Her...
