Sex differences in object location memory.
The ability to remember where objects were is thought to require multiple separate processes. One has to encode the precise positions occupied, assign the various objects to the correct (relative) locations, and achieve an integration of both types of spatial information. This study examined whether sex differences exist for these selective components of object location memory. Twenty males and...
متن کاملEffect of Amnesia Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer’s Diseaseon Recognition Memory of Elderly Peoplein Shiraz Verbal Learning Test: Differences in Recognition Discriminability and Response Bias
Background: Most studies have investigated the effect of brain pathological aging on information recall and recognition memory performance of patients (by using a yes/no procedure), and for this reason, provide a partial picture of memory deficits and other factors involved in recognition memory such as discriminability and response bias are not considered. In this regard, the aim of present st...
متن کامل(Putative) sex differences in neuroimmune modulation of memory.
The neuroimmune system is significantly sexually dimorphic, with sex differences evident in the number and activation states of microglia, in the activation of astrocytes, and in cytokine release and function. Neuroimmune cells and signaling are now recognized as critical for many neural functions throughout the life span, including synaptic plasticity and memory function. Here we address the q...
متن کاملSex differences in spatial memory using serial and search tasks.
The present study assessed the spatial abilities of male and female human participants using different versions of the non-navigational Corsi block-tapping test (CBT) and a search task. Males performed significantly better than females on the standard manual version of the CBT; however, the standard CBT does not allow discrimination between spatial memory span and the role of spatial organisati...
متن کاملSex differences in episodic memory: minimal influence of estradiol.
Sex differences exist for several cognitive tasks and estrogen has been suggested to influence these differences. Eighteen men and 18 women were matched on age and estradiol level. Potential sex differences were assessed in episodic memory, semantic memory, verbal fluency, problem solving, and visuospatial ability. Significant sex differences, favoring women, were found for tasks assessing epis...
