Relations between language and memory: the case of repetition deafness

Article Abstract:

Repetition deafness (RD) increases with the increase in the listlike sentence prosody, thus, showing a relation between language and memory. RD is the low immediate recall of repeated words as compared to words unrepeated during spoken list presentation. RD has characteristics similar to repetition blindness (RB). Differences in the format and the letter case of the visual presentation fail to decrease the RB. Similarly, acoustic differences in the voice of the speaker fail to reduce RD.

Mechanism of priming by masked stimuli: inferences from event-related brain potentials

Article Abstract:

Recording of event-related procedures (ERP) was combined with metacontrast studies to investigate the target processing priming effects of masked visual stimuli. Visual ERP components and lateralized readiness potential measures reveal that the congruity effect is not influenced by perceptual and preselection processes, indicating that masked stimuli sensorimotor processing is different from conscious perception.

Monitoring conscious recollection via the electrical activity of the brain

Article Abstract:

The underlying operations of another person's experience, though not seen directly, can be observed by using noninvasive electrophysiological techniques. Brain potentials showed 500 to 900 ms after visually given words differ systematically in amplitude with manipulations which affect subjects' memory processes. These brain potentials can be taken as correlates of the subjective experience of remembering.
