What makes a scientific theory convincing? We have many formal models of human
memory, but no agreement about which is the right one. If anything, we agree that they are …

Humans have a limited amount of cognitive resources to process various cognitive
operations at a given moment. The Source of Activation Confusion model of episodic …

Variability in attention can influence episodic encoding across multiple time scales. Here we
investigate whether this variability can be captured in neural subsequent memory effects. In …

When performing successive recall tests without restudy, subjects' recalls exhibit intriguing
variability across tests, including gaining or losing items across tests. To examine the …

The current study investigates whether electroencephalographic (EEG) activity reflects age-
related memory changes during encoding. We recorded scalp EEG in 151 young adults …

We propose a comprehensive model of how experiences are encoded and retrieved from
memory. At the core of the model is a dynamic retrieval process incorporating two essential …

We present a retrieved-context theory of memory for items, associations, and their interaction
(CMR-IA). Our theory assumes an evolving representation of temporal context that binds to …

Similarities among items govern how individuals organize their memories, as seen in the
order and timing of successively recalled words in free recall memory tasks. Prior work has …
