Brain imaging
Brain anotomy
the joker category
time course
100
primary sensory cortex and secondary sensory cortex are activated in this memory process
What is "encoding (information)"

Neuroimaging falls into two broad categories. - one deals with the structure of the nervous system and the diagnosis of gross (large scale) intracranial disease (such as tumor) and injury. - the other is used to diagnose metabolic diseases and lesions on a finer scale and also for neurological and cognitive psychology research. What are the two categories called?
What is structural imaging and functional imaging.
100
when remembering autobiographical events and the processing of self-related information, this part of the brain is activated
What is prefrontal cortex
100
an American memory disorder patient who had parts of his MTL removed in an attempt to cure his epilepsy
Who is H.M. (Henry Molaison)
100
For what function of declarative memory is the short route responsible?
What is retrieval
200
In retrieval this brain area plays the largest role
What is PFC
200
What is PET shortened for?
What is "positron emission tomography"
200
pic 2 (the yellow part)
What is PFC
200
What is the capacity of working memory?
What is 7
200
For what function of declarative memory is the long route responsible?
What is storage
300
The medial-temporal structures convert experiences into memory traces. What is this process called?
What is consolidation
300
What are the limitations to brain imaging when it comes to studying memory development in children
What is 1. patience, motivation, mood; 2. lying still; 3. ethical? --> loud noise, claustrophobia, or side effects (like headaches).
300
Pic 3 (green area)
What is temporal lope
300
Bauer (2009) lists up 5 criteria that makes up 5 different types of memory. Which one is missing? - content - function - neural substrates - ontogenetic time courses
What is "the rules of operation"
300
The development of the dentate gyrus accounts for an increase in the functioning of declarative memory. At which age does this increase occur?
What is around the age of 2 years
400
For how long is information about a stimuli kept in the association areas before it fades away (--> when it doesnt get through further processing).
What is around half a minute
400
measures brain activity by detecting changes associated with blood flow. This technique relies on the fact that cerebral blood flow and neuronal activation are coupled. When an area of the brain is in use, blood flow to that region also increases.
What is fMRI
400
a major component of the central nervous system, consisting of neuronal cell bodies, dendrites and myelinated as well as unmyelinated axons, glial cells, synapses, and capillaries.
What is grey matter
400
a type of amnesia, where the patient has lesions or disease in the Medial-temporal structures, and as a result DONT remember recently learned material, but DO remember memory for information learned long ago
What is retrograde amnesia
400
At what age can children express novelty-preference AFTER A DELAY in the visual paired-comparison task?
What is around 9 months
500
In consolidation, which specific brain structure is responsible for linking new experience to information that is already present?
What is Hippocampus
500
What year was fMRI introduced as a technique?
What is 1991
500
draw on blackboard 500
What is dentate gyrus
500
is a pseudomedicine primarily focused on measurements of the human skull, based on the concept that the brain is the organ of the mind, and that certain brain areas have localized, specific functions or modules
What is phrenology
500
What constitutes the long route? (structures)
What is Projections from the entorhinal cortex to dentate gyrus to hippocampus
