Sensory information undergoes extensive associative elaboration and attentional
modulation as it becomes incorporated into the texture of cognition. This process occurs …

Event-related brain potentials (ERPs) provide high-resolution measures of the time course of
neuronal activity patterns associated with perceptual and cognitive processes. New …

▪ Abstract Current knowledge is summarized about long-term memory systems of the human
brain, with memory systems defined as specific neural networks that support specific …

To examine putative brain substrates of cognitive functions differentially affected by age the
authors measured the volume of cortical regions and performance on tests of executive …

During the decade following a functional neuroimaging study of language that showed
cerebellar involvement in a cognitive task, PET and fMRI studies have continued to provide …

What are the neural bases of semantic memory? Traditional beliefs that the temporal lobes
subserve the retrieval of semantic knowledge, arising from lesion studies, have been …

Reading words and naming pictures involves the association of visual stimuli with
phonological and semantic knowledge. Damage to a region of the brain in the left basal …

Category-specific semantic impairments have been explained in terms of preferential
damage to different types of features (eg, perceptual vs. functional). This account is …

A striking characteristic of human memory is that pictures are remembered better than
words. We examined the neural correlates of memory for pictures and words in the context of …

Studies of patients with brain damage suggest that specific brain regions may be
differentially involved in representing/processing certain categories of conceptual …
