PSCH 366 Study Guide - Quiz Guide: Temporal Lobe, Parahippocampal Gyrus, Rhinal Cortex
Document Summary
How accurate/detailed are the autobiographical memories of patients with damage to just the. In the subsequent memory paradigm, subjects have to judge a green word as animate or inanimate and a red word as big or small. Confidcence in how well they could pin it. Associative only potentiate weaker input that occurs with stronger input. Specificity do not potentiate inactive inputs increase in synaptic efficacy arises from the presynaptic cell"s repeated and persistent stimulation of the postsynaptic cell. Plasticity: changing the strength of the perforant input signal results in a change of the dentate response. Imagine you have a stimulating electrode in the perforant pathway of the hippocampus and a recording electrode in a granule cell of the dentate gyrus. Fill in data that would be consistent with ltp occurring. What kind of receptor is needed for ltp and what"s so special about it? (hint: what are the differences between ampa and nmda receptors?)
