According to dual-process models, recognition memory is supported by distinct retrieval
processes known as familiarity and recollection. Important evidence supporting the dual …

This article reviews literature on the characteristics and possible interpretations of the event-
related potential (ERP) peaks commonly identified in research. The description of each peak …

The last decade has seen a flurry of experimental research into the neurocognitive
underpinnings of illusory memories. Using simple materials and tests (eg, recalling words or …

Dual process theories posit that separate recollection and familiarity processes contribute to
recognition memory. Previous research, testing recognition memory for words, indicates that …

Memory distortion occurs in the laboratory and in everyday life. This article focuses on false
recognition, a common type of memory distortion in which individuals incorrectly claim to …

Dual-process theories suggest that recognition memory is determined by two separate
processes: familiarity and recollection. Experiment 1 behaviorally replicated past studies …

Amnesic patients with early and seemingly isolated hippocampal injury show relatively
normal recognition memory scores. The cognitive profile of these patients raises the …

A visual Simon task was used to study the influence of aging on visuospatial attention and
inhibitory control processes. Responses were much slower for elderly than for young …

Separate event-related brain potential (ERP) components have been hypothesized to index
familiarity and recollection processes that support recognition memory. A 300-to 500-ms mid …

The question of how emotions influence recognition memory is of interest not only within
basic cognitive neuro-science but from clinical and forensic perspectives as well. Emotional …
