  2. 16. Prior Knowledge and Recognition Memory : a Computational Modeling Approach

    Author : Johan Hellman; Institutionen för psykologi; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Recognition memory; Episodic memory; Pre-experimental familiarity; Event-Related Potentials; Item variability; Receiver-Operating Characteristics; Computational Models;

    Abstract : For more than a century, an immense interest has been devoted to the study of recognition memory, where a multitude of memory phenomena has been explained. Recognition memory is usually described with parsimonious measurement and statistical models, stemming from dual process theory and signal detection theory. READ MORE

    Abstract : The general aim of the present doctoral thesis was to examine the potential ability of mild AD patients to utilize semantic knowledge in different forms to enhance episodic memory performance, as well as to investigate the ability to retrieve and monitor general knowledge in these patients. The study samples included mildly demented AD patients and control groups of normal older adults. READ MORE
