Assessing the Role of the Left Dorsal Frontal Cortex in Working Memory Guidance: Attentional or Mnemonic? A Neurostimulation Study
(Neuroscience, 2019)
Perceptual selection can be guided by the contents of working memory (WM). Neuroimaging and neuropsychological data point to a role of a fronto-parietal and fronto-thalamic networks in WM guidance. Here we assessed the ...
Learning of goal-relevant and -irrelevant complex visual sequences in human V1
(NeuroImage, 2018)
Learning and memory are supported by a network involving the medial temporal lobe and linked neocortical regions. Emerging evidence indicates that primary visual
cortex (i.e., V1) may contribute to recognition memory, but ...
Motor dexterity and strength depend upon integrity of the attention-control system
(PNAS, 2018)
Attention control (or executive control) is a higher cognitive function involved in response selection and inhibition, through close interactions with the motor system. Here, we tested whether influences of attention control ...
How ageing changes the mnemonic bias of visual behaviour
(Visual Cognition, 2017)
Ageing is associated with deficits in cognitive control, including attention and working memory
processes. However, how ageing influences the interactions between these cognitive systems is
not well understood. The present ...
How the human brain introspects about one's own episodes of cognitive control
(cortex, 2018)
Metacognition refers to our capacity to reflect upon our experiences, thoughts and actions. Metacognition processes are linked to cognitive control functions that allow keeping our actions on-task. But it is unclear how ...
A Novel Framework for Unconscious Processing
(Trends in Cognitive Sciences,, 2019)
Understanding the distinction between conscious and unconscious cognition remains a priority
in psychology and neuroscience. A comprehensive neurocognitive account of conscious
awareness will not be possible without a ...
Metacognitive Processing in Language Learning Tasks Is Affected by Bilingualism
(Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020)
We assessed the effect of bilingualism on metacognitive processing in the artificial language learning
task, in 2 experiments varying in the difficulty to segment the language. Following a study phase in which
participants ...
Electrophysiology of statistical learning: Exploring the online learning process and offline learning product
(European Journal of Neuroscience, 2020)
A continuous stream of syllables is segmented into discrete constituents based on
the transitional probabilities (TPs) between adjacent syllables by means of statistical
learning. However, we still do not know whether ...
The Confidence Database
(Nature Human Behaviour, 2020)
Understanding how people rate their confidence is critical for the characterization of a wide range of perceptual, memory, motor and cognitive processes. To enable the continued exploration of these processes, we created ...
The Anatomy of Non-conscious Recognition Memory
(Trends in Neusciences, 2016)
Cortical regions as early as primary
visual cortex have been implicated
in recognition memory. Here, we
outline the challenges that this
presents for neurobiological
accounts of recognition memory.
We conclude that ...
