modern neuroscientific research help to solve the impotent challenge in curriculum design and teaching for enhancing students’ ability to organize information in a way that makes it efficient in response to an appropriate context such as problem solving and critical thinking via knowing about the mechanism of different type of memories especially long term memory. at first, we should to clarify...

the central cholinergic system has been associated with cognitive function and memory and acetylcholine plays an important role during the early stages of memory consolidation. in this study, after training mice were tested with one way active avoidance procedure and retention were tested at 4, 8, 12, 16 and 24 hours of training and compared with non-shocked mice, in which it took 24 hours, a s...

abstract: introduction & objective: the hippocampal formation is a part of limbic system that plays an important role in memory and learning. the hippocampus is divided into three subfields: ca1, ca2 and ca3. in addition to pyramidal neurons and interneurons, the astrocytes play important roles in hippocampus, probably in memory and learning. in fact, learning needs some instruments for informa...

objective: the present study aimed to compare prospective and retrospective memory impairment and attention deficit in people suffering from chronic low back pain with those cognitive functions in healthy subjects. furthermore, this study examines the relation between severity and duration of pain and prospective and retrospective memory impairment and attention deficit. methods: the research w...

diabetes mellitus is accompanied with disturbances in learning, memory, and cognitive skills in the humans and experimental animals. due to the anti-diabetic and antioxidant activity of pelargonidin (pg), this research study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of chronic oral pg on alleviating learning and memory disturbance in streptozotocin-diabetic rats. male wistar rats were divided into...

objective: the study was designed to examine explicit memory bias in trait-anxiety and obsessive compulsive disorder. method: memory bias was examined in three groups of subjects: low-trait  anxious (20 subjects), high-trait anxious (20 subjects), and obsessive compulsive patients (20 subjects) in whom danger schema were activated after they were exposed the threat-related material. the trait-a...

effect of in order to test the memory state in patients with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (niddm) after glycemic control, one-hundred patients referring to isfahan endocrine and metabolism research center were simply randomized. they were compared in point of memory state with one hundred cases as the control group. the wechsler memory scale test was utilized to evaluate the memory s...

in the current study, we assessed the role of transient receptor potential (trp) channels on avoidance memory and anxiety states in ca3 area of the hippocampus. we explored the anxiety and avoidance memory states using test-retest protocol in the elevated plus maze to understand whether trp channels can affect the above mentioned states in ca3 area. to investigate the consolidation phase of mem...
