Cerebellar Contributions to Cognition
As noted above, since the mid-1980s attempts to under-Department of Radiology stand the cognitive functions of the cerebellum have Washington University School of Medicine relied upon evidence from many different methodolo-St. Louis, Missouri 63110 gies. Functional imaging studies using positron emission tomography (PET) and, more recently, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) have been...
متن کاملDamages to cortical associative areas: effects on visual discrimination learning in cats.
Participation of the parietal and frontal cortical areas in pattern discrimination learning was studied in cats. Extirpation of the parietal cortex (fields 5 or 7) produced a deficit of visual discrimination of simultaneously presented patterns, but the animals were able to relearn the task. Postoperative learning of simultaneous discrimination was abolished, although successive discrimination ...
متن کاملSize of error affects cerebellar contributions to motor learning.
Small errors may affect the process of learning in a fundamentally different way than large errors. For example, adapting reaching movements in response to a small perturbation produces generalization patterns that are different from large perturbations. Are distinct neural mechanisms engaged in response to large versus small errors? Here, we examined the motor learning process in patients with...
متن کاملCortical and basal ganglia contributions to habit learning and automaticity.
In the 20th century it was thought that novel behaviors are mediated primarily in cortex and that the development of automaticity is a process of transferring control to subcortical structures. However, evidence supports the view that subcortical structures, such as the striatum, make significant contributions to initial learning. More recently, there has been increasing evidence that neurons i...
متن کاملCerebellar associative sensory learning defects in five mouse autism models
Sensory integration difficulties have been reported in autism, but their underlying brain-circuit mechanisms are underexplored. Using five autism-related mouse models, Shank3+/ΔC, Mecp2(R308/Y), Cntnap2-/-, L7-Tsc1 (L7/Pcp2(Cre)::Tsc1(flox/+)), and patDp(15q11-13)/+, we report specific perturbations in delay eyeblink conditioning, a form of associative sensory learning requiring cerebellar plas...
