Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a form of experimentally induced enhancement of chemical
synaptic transmission that has long been proposed as a model of the endogenous …

Background The time course and outcome of perceptual learning can be affected by the
length and distribution of practice, but the training regimen parameters that govern these …

Location-specific perceptual learning can be rendered transferrable to a new location with
double training, in which feature training (eg, contrast) is accompanied by additional location …

The neural correlates for retention of visual information in visual short-term memory are
considered separate from those of sensory encoding. However, recent findings suggest that …

Practice in most sensory tasks substantially improves perceptual performance. A hallmark of
this 'perceptual learning'is its specificity for the basic attributes of the trained stimulus and …

Perceptual learning is defined as long‐term improvement in perceptual or sensory systems
resulting from repeated practice or experience. As the number of perceptual learning studies …

What are the neural mechanisms underlying improvement in perceptual performance due to
learning? A recent study using motion-direction discrimination suggested that perceptual …

Perceptual learning of 10-AFC texture identification is stimulus specific: after practice,
identification accuracy drops substantially when textures are rotated 180°, reversed in …

Practice-induced improvements in skilled performance reflect “offline” consolidation
processes extending beyond daily training sessions. According to visual learning theories …

Principles of Learning and Memory focuses on the most topical and central phenomena,
which are discussed from an interdisciplinary point of view in five sections: formation …
