Perhaps one of the greatest scientific challenges is to understand the human brain. Here we
review current methods in human neuroscience, highlighting the ways that they have been …

Education ideally should induce learning that lasts for years and more. A wealth of research
indicates that, to achieve long-lasting retention, information must be practiced and/or tested …

The researcher developed a Basic4Android smartphone app (named as Word Learning-
CET6) and investigated its effectiveness as a tool in helping English as a Foreign Language …

According to recent evidence, stimulus-tuned neurons in the cerebral cortex exhibit reduced
variability in firing rate across trials, after the onset of a stimulus. However, in order for a …

We are usually able to recognize novel instances of familiar faces with little difficulty, yet
recognition of unfamiliar faces can be dramatically impaired by natural within-person …

The researcher designed a smartphone app to help college students to learn English (L2)
vocabulary. The app contained 3,402 English words that were compiled into an alphabetic …

Inductive category learning takes place across time. As such, it is not surprising that the
sequence in which information is studied has an impact in what is learned and how efficient …

Formal computational models of human memory posit a central role of feature
representations in episodic memory encoding and retrieval [1–4]. Correspondingly, fMRI …

We outline a theoretical framework encompassing the relationship between encoding and
retrieval processes in episodic memory. There are no cortical regions or networks that are …

Encoding and retrieval processes enhance long-term memory performance. The efficiency
of encoding processes has recently been linked to representational consistency: the …
