Rule-Based Category Learning 1 In Press, NeuroReport Cortical and Subcortical Brain Regions Involved in Rule-Based Category Learning
The brain regions contributing to rule-based category learning were examined using fMRI. Participants categorized single lines that varied in length and orientation into one of two categories. Category membership was based on the length of the line. Results indicated that left frontal and parietal regions were differentially activated in those participants who learned the task as compared to th...
متن کاملRule-based and information-integration category learning in normal aging.
The basal ganglia and prefrontal cortex play critical roles in category learning. Both regions evidence age-related structural and functional declines. The current study examined rule-based and information-integration category learning in a group of older and younger adults. Rule-based learning is thought to involve explicit, frontally mediated processes, whereas information-integration is thou...
متن کاملCompensatory processing during rule-based category learning in older adults.
Healthy older adults typically perform worse than younger adults at rule-based category learning, but better than patients with Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease. To further investigate aging's effect on rule-based category learning, we monitored event-related potentials (ERPs) while younger and neuropsychologically typical older adults performed a visual category-learning task with a rule-bas...
متن کاملRule-based category learning in patients with Parkinson's disease.
Measures of explicit rule-based category learning are commonly used in neuropsychological evaluation of individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) and the pattern of PD performance on these measures tends to be highly varied. We review the neuropsychological literature to clarify the manner in which PD affects the component processes of rule-based category learning and work to identify and resol...
متن کاملEgo depletion interferes with rule-defined category learning but not non-rule-defined category learning
Considerable research on category learning has suggested that many cognitive and environmental factors can have a differential effect on the learning of rule-defined (RD) categories as opposed to the learning of non-rule-defined (NRD) categories. Prior research has also suggested that ego depletion can temporarily reduce the capacity for executive functioning and cognitive flexibility. The pres...
