Neurocognitive predictors of food memory in healthy adults - a preregistered analysis
Neurobiol Learn Mem. 2023 Aug 23:107813. doi: 10.1016/j.nlm.2023.107813. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMemory processes have long been known to determine food choices (Rozin & Zellner, 1985) but recognition memory of food and its cognitive, homeostatic and neuroanatomical predictors are still largely understudied. 60 healthy, overweight, non-restrictive eating adults (20 females) took part in a food wanting and subsequent food recognition and lure discrimination task at four time points after a standardized breakfast shake. With advanced tractography of 3T diffusion-weighted imaging data, we investigated the influence ...

Stress, associative learning, and decision-making
Neurobiol Learn Mem. 2023 Aug 19;204:107812. doi: 10.1016/j.nlm.2023.107812. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTExposure to acute and chronic stress has significant effects on the basic mechanisms of associative learning and memory. Stress can both impair and enhance associative learning depending on type, intensity, and persistence of the stressor, the subject's sex, the context that the stress and behavior is experienced in, and the type of associative learning taking place. In some cases, stress can cause or exacerbate the maladaptive behavior that underlies numerous psychiatric conditions including anxiety disorders, obsess...

The function of REM and NREM sleep on memory distortion and consolidation
Neurobiol Learn Mem. 2023 Aug 9;204:107811. doi: 10.1016/j.nlm.2023.107811. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDuring rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, newly consolidated memories can be distorted to adjust the existing memory base in memory integration. However, only a few studies have demonstrated the role of REM sleep in memory distortion. The present study aims to clarify the role of REM sleep in the facilitation of memory distortion, that is, hindsight bias, compared to non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep and wake states. The split-night paradigm was used to segregate REM and NREM sleep. The hypotheses are (1) hindsight bias...
