The posterior parietal cortex in recognition memory: a neuropsychological study.
Several recent functional neuroimaging studies have reported robust bilateral activation (L>R) in lateral posterior parietal cortex and precuneus during recognition memory retrieval tasks. It has not yet been determined what cognitive processes are represented by those activations. In order to examine whether parietal lobe-based processes are necessary for basic episodic recognition abilities, ...
متن کاملRepresentation of numerosity in posterior parietal cortex
Humans and animals appear to share a similar representation of number as an analog magnitude on an internal, subjective scale. Neurological and neurophysiological data suggest that posterior parietal cortex (PPC) is a critical component of the circuits that form the basis of numerical abilities in humans. Patients with parietal lesions are impaired in their ability to access the deep meaning of...
متن کاملCompetition and representation during memory retrieval: roles of the prefrontal cortex and the posterior parietal cortex.
In this functional-MRI study we examined the hypothesis that the prefrontal cortex responds differently to the extent of competition during retrieval, whereas the parietal cortex is responsible for problem representation that should not be directly related to the competition. Participants mastered arbitrary person-location pairs, and their recognition memory was tested in a functional-MRI sessi...
متن کاملRepresentation of egocentric space in the posterior parietal cortex.
The posterior parietal cortex (PPC) is the most likely site where egocentric spatial relationships are represented in the brain. PPC cells receive visual, auditory, somaesthetic, and vestibular sensory inputs; oculomotor, head, limb, and body motor signals; and strong motivational projections from the limbic system. Their discharge increases not only when an animal moves towards a sensory targe...
متن کاملWorking Memory Retrieval: Contributions of the Left Prefrontal Cortex, the Left Posterior Parietal Cortex, and the Hippocampus
Functional magnetic resonance was used to identify regions involved in the working memory (WM) retrieval. Neural activation was examined in two WM tasks: an item recognition task, which can be mediated by a direct- access retrieval process, and a judgement of recency task that require a serial search. Dissociations were found in the activation patterns in the hippocampus and in the left inferio...
