Functional neuroanatomy of remote episodic, semantic and spatial memory: a unified account based on multiple trace theory (2005, methodology): “Steinvorth et al. (2005) applied the new scoring method of Levine et al. (2002) to Scoville & Milner’s patient, H.M., and to W.D., both of whom had lesions that were much more circumscribed and largely confined to the MTL.”
What does the retrosplenial cortex do? (2009, background): “, they have not been tested with the same degree of rigor as impairments associated with hippocampal patholog”
The Future of Memory: Remembering, Imagining, and the Brain (2012, methodology): “Studies using the Autobiographical Interview procedure (Levine et al., 2002) discussed earlier have documented that older adults produce fewer internal or episodic details than younger adults both when remembering the past and imagining the future, along with an increased number of external details ”
The cognitive neuroscience of remote episodic, semantic and spatial memory. (2006, background): “Because most autobiographical memories lose their vividness (detail) as they age [36], memories of amnesic and healthy people might appear equally impoverished at remote periods if memory is queried insufficiently.”
Functional neuroimaging of autobiographical memory. (2007, background): “(iv) Age and mental health of participants. Older adults [ 64 ,65] and”
The hippocampus and related neocortical structures in memory transformation. (2018, methodology): “Last, there was greater activation in anterior hippocampus in older (over 55 years), than in young, adults, consistent with older adults ‘ greater reliance on gist as a result of their compromised ability to re-experience the past in great detail [50].”
Couples as socially distributed cognitive systems: Remembering in everyday social and material contexts (2014, background): “…was striking because older adults are normally found to have an age-related episodic deficit, meaning they recall fewer episodic memories (memories of specific events), while semantic memory (memory for general information) is generally spared with age (Addis et al., 2008; Levine et al., 2002).”
Age-related Changes in Brain Activity across the Adult Lifespan (2006, background): “Reductions in recall of real-life, autobiographical memories also have been reported ( Levine, Svoboda, Hay, Winocur, & Moscovitch, 2002; Piolino, Desgranges, Benali, & Eustache, 2002), consisting mainly of a reduction in retrieval of event details.”
Episodic Future Thinking: Mechanisms and Functions (2017, methodology): “Some of the key cognitive evidence supporting a role for episodic memory in future imagining comes from studies using the Autobiographical Interview (AI [15]).”
Remembering the past to imagine the future: the prospective brain (2007, positive): “When asked to generate past and future events, the older adults generated fewer episode-specific details relating to the past events than the younger adults, which replicated earlier results 24 .”
Are episodic memories special? On the sameness of remembered and imagined event simulation (2018, methodology): “…and conceptual information about the objects and other people featuring in the event, about the self as an observer of the event and/or as the subject of the experience itself, as well as an unfolding sequence of actions, consequences, dialogue, thoughts and emotions (Levine et al. 2002).”
Systems consolidation and hippocampus: two views (2007, background): “The number of details recalled by their controls was far less than that reported by controls in other studies [36], nor was there any evidence of the typical loss of memory with aging in their control subjects, a finding inconsistent with most of the work in this area.”
