Sample characteristics by age group (preterm born children, term born children, young adults) showing comparability between groups
Source publication
From early to middle childhood, brain regions that underlie memory consolidation undergo profound maturational changes. However, there is little empirical investigation that directly relates age-related differences in brain structural measures to the memory consolidation processes. The present study examined system-level memory consolidations of in...

... young adult participants were excluded due to incomplete task execution and missing data (n=2), and identification as an outlier (n=2) due to chance performance. Thus, the final sample size consisted of 30 typically developing term born children (12 female, mean age 6.37 years, SD = 0.36), 15 preterm born children (7 female, mean age 6.25 years, SD = 0.61), and 33 term born young adults (15 female, mean age 25.45 years, SD = 2.80; see Table 1). ...Similar publications
Prism Adaptation (PA) is a useful method to study the mechanisms of sensorimotor adaptation. After-effects following adaptation to the prismatic deviation constitute the probe that adaptive mechanisms occurred, and current evidence suggests an involvement of the cerebellum at this level. Whether after-effects are transferable to another task is of...
Our ability to recall memories is improved when sleep follows learning, suggesting that sleep facilitates memory consolidation. A number of factors are thought to influence the impact of sleep on newly learned information, such as whether or not we rehearse that information (e.g. via restudy or retrieval practice), or the extent to which the inform...
Memory consolidation is a time-dependent process occurring over hours, days, or longer in different species and requires protein synthesis. An apparent exception is a memory type in Drosophila elicited by a single olfactory conditioning episode, which ostensibly consolidates quickly, rendering it resistant to disruption by cold anesthesia a few hou...
While a number of studies have repeatedly demonstrated an automatic activation of sensorimotor experience during language processing in the form of action-congruency effects, as predicted by theories of grounded cognition, more recent research has not found these effects for words that were just learned from linguistic input alone, without sensorim...
