It is well established that healthy aging, amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment (aMCI), and
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) are associated with substantial declines in episodic memory …

Recognizing a stimulus as previously encountered is a crucial everyday life skill and a
critical task motivating theoretical development in models of human memory. Although there …

Although it is generally accepted that ageing is associated with recollection impairments,
there is considerable disagreement surrounding how healthy ageing influences familiarity …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to investigate whether age-related
differences in episodic memory performance are accompanied by a reduction in the …

A cardinal feature of older-adult cognition is a decline, relative to the young, in the encoding
and retrieval of personally relevant events, ie, episodic memory (EM). A consensus holds …

Healthy aging is associated with intact familiarity, whereas recollection, usually supporting
associative memory, is attenuated. Accordingly, associative memory shows a stronger age …

In several previous behavioral studies, we have identified a group of amnestic patients that,
behaviorally, appear to exhibit severe deficits in recollection with relative preservation of …

Normal aging is associated with greater decline in associative memory relative to item
memory due to impaired recollection. Familiarity may also contribute to associative …

The hippocampus has traditionally been thought to be critical for conscious explicit memory
but not necessary for unconscious implicit memory processing. In a recent study of a group …

Like several other cognitive abilities, episodic memory—consciously accessible memory for
