Among the most fundamental issues in cognitive neuroscience is how the brain may be
organized into process-specific and stimulus-specific regions. In the episodic memory …

With advancing age, individuals experience a gradual decline in recollection, the ability to
retrieve personal experiences accompanied by details, such as temporal and spatial …

Positron emission tomography (PET) was used to compare regional cerebral blood flow
(rCBF) in young (mean 26 years) and old (mean 70 years) subjects while they were …

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of aging on memory for object identity
and object location to determine whether aging affects both posterior neocortical areas that …

Studies investigating age-related functional differences associated with source memory
have recently focused on the importance of clarifying the relationship between effects of age …

Purpose: To evaluate the differences of cortical activation patterns in young and elderly
healthy subjects for object and spatial visual processing using a face-and location-matching …

A number of theories have emerged to explain the well-studied changes in memory that
occur with age. Many of these theories invoke mechanisms that have the potential to affect …

Capacities of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) such as working memory (WM) are known to
decline with increasing age. However, it is unclear which neurofunctional mechanisms may …

Human cognitive abilities decline with increasing chronological age, with decreased explicit
memory performance being most strongly affected. However, some older adults show …

Age-related decline in allocentric (viewer-independent) spatial memory is seen across
species. We employed a virtual reality analogue of the Morris Water Maze to study the effect …
