  2. Associative sequence learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_Sequence_Learning

    Associative sequence learning (ASL) is a neuroscientific theory that attempts to explain how mirror neurons are able to match observed and performed actions, and how individuals (adults, children, animals) are able to imitate body movements. The theory was proposed by Cecilia Heyes in 2000.

  3. Interneuron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interneuron

    For example, interneurons in the thoracic ganglia are responsible for coordinating the activity of the leg muscles during walking [21] and flying. [ 22 ] Interneurons' main function is to provide a neural circuit, conducting flow of signals or information between sensory neurons and motor neurons.

  4. Document-based question - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Document-based_question

    In American Advanced Placement exams, a document-based question (DBQ), also known as data-based question, is an essay or series of short-answer questions that is constructed by students using one's own knowledge combined with support from several provided sources. Usually, it is employed on timed history tests.

  5. Hopfield network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hopfield_network

    A Hopfield network (or associative memory) is a form of recurrent neural network, or a spin glass system, that can serve as a content-addressable memory.The Hopfield network, named for John Hopfield, consists of a single layer of neurons, where each neuron is connected to every other neuron except itself.

  6. Associative interference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_interference

    For example, if subjects are asked to memorize word pairs (e.g., donkey-tree and dog-tree), interference will occur when two pairs share a common associate (in this example, tree). A study using paired-associate tasks by Wickens, Born, and Allen (1963) [ 15 ] showed that if target material and interfering material decrease in similarity, a ...

  7. Associative memory (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_memory...

    Associative memory becomes poorer in humans as they age. Additionally, it has been shown to be non-correlational with a single item (non-associative) memory function. [10] Non-invasive brain stimulation techniques have emerged as promising tools for the improvement of associative memory.

  8. AP World History: Modern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_World_History:_Modern

    In 2012, the head of AP Grading, Trevor Packer, stated that the reason for the low percentages of 5s is that "AP World History is a college-level course, & many sophomores aren't yet writing at that level." 10.44 percent of all seniors who took the exam in 2012 received a 5, while just 6.62 percent of sophomores received a 5.

    For example (Fig. 1), in a basic neural circuit with two input neurons—A and B—that have excitatory synaptic terminals converging on a single output neuron (C), if each input neuron's EPSP is sub-threshold for an action potential at C, then C cannot fire unless the two inputs from A and B are temporally close.
