  2. Hippocampal memory encoding and retrieval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippocampal_memory...

    The hippocampus is located in the medial temporal lobe (subcortical), and is an infolding of the medial temporal cortex. [1] The hippocampus plays an important role in the transfer of information from short-term memory to long-term memory during encoding and retrieval stages. These stages do not need to occur successively, but are, as studies ...

  3. Hippocampus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippocampus

    The hippocampus (pl.: hippocampi; via Latin from Greek ἱππόκαμπος, 'seahorse'), also hippocampus proper, is a major component of the brain of humans and many other vertebrates. In the human brain the hippocampus, the dentate gyrus, and the subiculum are the components of the hippocampal formation located in the limbic system.

    Quizlet was founded in 2005 by Andrew Sutherland as a studying tool to aid in memorization for his French class, which he claimed to have "aced". [6] [7] [8] ...

  5. Brain morphometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_morphometry

    This allows researchers to quantify anatomical features of the brain in terms of shape, mass, volume (e.g. of the hippocampus, or of the primary versus secondary visual cortex), and to derive more specific information, such as the encephalization quotient, grey matter density and white matter connectivity, gyrification, cortical thickness, or ...

  6. Hippocampal subfields - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippocampal_subfields

    The hippocampal subfields are four subfields CA1, CA2, CA3, and CA4 that make up the structure of the hippocampus. Regions described in the hippocampus are the head, body, and tail, and other hippocampal subfields include the dentate gyrus , the presubiculum , and the subiculum .

  7. Visual memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_memory

    Focal hyperactivity causes persistent activation of a visual cortex-hippocampal neuronal circuit which encodes an object or scene that is already in visual memory. "All of the hallucinatory palinopsia symptoms occur concomitantly in a patient with one lesion, which supports current evidence that objects, features, and scenes are all units of ...

  8. Hippocampal formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippocampal_formation

    The hippocampal formation is a compound structure in the medial temporal lobe of the brain. It forms a c-shaped bulge on the floor of the inferior horn of the lateral ventricle . [ 1 ] Typically, the hippocampal formation is said to included the dentate gyrus , the hippocampus , and the subiculum . [ 2 ]

  9. Percentile rank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentile_rank

    The figure illustrates the percentile rank computation and shows how the 0.5 × F term in the formula ensures that the percentile rank reflects a percentage of scores less than the specified score. For example, for the 10 scores shown in the figure, 60% of them are below a score of 4 (five less than 4 and half of the two equal to 4) and 95% are ...
