Repetition blindness interacts with syntactic grouping in rapidly presented sentences

Article Abstract:

Visual and auditory repetition deficits (RD) are similar processes that obey the node structure theory modulation. For visual inputs, associations are readily formed between simultaneously presented items. Associations are also readily formed between successively presented words for auditory inputs. RD decreases with prosody of normally produced sentences in a rapid auditory processing (RAP) task. The RAP word lists and sentences decrease the ability to form word-to-phrase lists and increases the auditory RD. Results agree with the observed effects of prosody and the syntax on auditory RD.

Memory, amnesia, and dissociative identity disorder

Article Abstract:

Research shows that implicit memory testing is an inconclusive technique in establishing whether a patient with dissociative identity disorder (DID) can recall information from one personality through another. Experiments with nine DID patients exhibit equally strong picture-fragment completion within one personality or across several personalities. Further research is required to establish more information on interpersonality amnesia.

Double dissociation between memory systems underlying explicit and implicit memory in the human brain

Article Abstract:

Separate processing systems mediate the visual implicit and explicit memory as is shown by double dissociation between these two forms of memory for words. Implicit visual memory for words is mediated by memory system in right occipital cortex. The study of a patient with a lesion in the right occipital lobe showed good implicit but impaired explicit memory of words.
