While a role for sleep in declarative memory processing is established, the qualitative nature
of this consolidation benefit, and the physiological mechanisms mediating it, remain …

The hippocampus is thought to be an associative memory “convergence zone,” binding
together the multimodal elements of an experienced event into a single engram. This …

Do complex event representations fragment over time, or are they instead forgotten in an all-
or-none manner? For example, if we met a friend in a café and they gave us a present, do …

Dividing attention (DA) between a memory task and a secondary task results in deficits in

Returning to a place after many years of absence can bring memories to mind that may have
seemed to be long-lost. Remembering experiences often begins with remembering where …

Recent evidence suggests that directing attention toward single item-context associations
during encoding improves young and older adults' context memory performance and …

Representing events in episodic memory in a coherent manner requires that their
constituent elements are bound together. So far, only few moderators of these binding …

Remembering an experienced event in a coherent manner requires the binding of the
event's constituent elements. Such binding effects manifest as a stochastic dependency of …

The effects of context on item-based directed forgetting were assessed. Study words were
presented against different background pictures and were followed by a cue to remember …
