Neural and cognitive plasticity: From maps to minds
2008
Psychological bulletin
Specifically, it is hypothesized that cognitive plasticity depends on the number and diversity of cortical modules that an organism has available as well as the brain's capacity to flexibly reconfigure ...
The proposed framework provides a unified account of variability in cognitive plasticity as a function of species, age, and individual, and it makes specific predictions about how manipulations of cortical ...
Second, it is suggested that cognitive plasticity entails the ability to flexibly develop new circuit configurations and to switch between them, that is, that assemblies of cortical modules are reconfigurable ...

Differences between Old and Young Adults' Ability to Recognize Human Faces Underlie Processing of Horizontal Information
2012
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience
Contrary to most findings in the field of developmental face perception, only a near-significant age effect is apparent in upright and un-manipulated presentation of stimuli, whereas a bigger difference ...
Recent psychophysical research supports the notion that horizontal information of a face is primarily important for facial identity processes. ...
At the same time, subjects have been noted to perform better on stimuli depicting faces closer to their own age, which might be linked to the time that is spent with individuals of their own age. ...

Intelligence
The associations between indices of brain structure and measured intelligence are unclear. This is partly because the evidence to-date comes from mostly small and heterogeneous studies. ...
A general factor of intelligence (g) was derived from four varied cognitive tests, accounting for one third of the variance in the cognitive test scores. ...

tRNS Boosts Perceptual Learning in Peripheral Vision
2019
Neuropsychologia
After training, the tRNS group showed greater learning rate with respect to the sham group. For both groups, learning generalized to the same extent to the untrained retinal location and task. ...
Perceptual Learning (PL) has been shown to reduce crowding, although a large number of sessions is required to observe significant improvements. ...

Cerebral Cortex
Encoding activity was related to general cognitive abilities and variations of grey matter as captured by a multi-modal independent component analysis, variables reflecting core aspects of cognitive and ...
We clustered regions of the cerebral cortex according to the shape of the lifespan trajectory of memory activity in each region so that regions showing the same pattern were clustered together. ...

Recognition of unfamiliar faces
2000
Trends in Cognitive Sciences
The relationships between different parts of the face (its "configuration") are as important to the impression created of an upright face as local features themselves, suggesting further constraints on ...
In this review we shall consider some of the factors which affect our abilities to match unfamiliar faces. ...
The human MDS data gave a much better account, especially when paired with a kernel density estimation model that allocated bigger kernels (regions of face space) to more distinctive faces. ...

Here, we focus on the tension between the claim that predictive processing is compatible with all of the leading neuroscientific models of consciousness with the fact that most attempts explaining consciousness ...
Firstly, we argue that predictive processing is unlikely to yield significant breakthroughs in the search for the neural correlates of consciousness as it is still too vague to individuate neural mechanisms ...
