Recollection- and familiarity-based memory in healthy aging and amnestic mild cognitive impairment.

Abstract: Little is known about the cognitive mechanisms of the memory impairment associated with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI). We explored recollection and familiarity in 27 healthy young adults, 45 healthy older adults, and 17 individuals with aMCI. Relative to the younger adults, recollection was reduced in the older adults, especially among those with aMCI. Familiarity did not differ among groups. In the healthy younger and older adults, better performance on a set of clinical memory measures that are s… Show more

“…Henson, Rugg, Shallice, Josephs, & Dolan, 1999), there is very poor correspondence of prefrontal sites between the two approaches and relatedly what they are doing. There is also behavioural evidence from older healthy adults showing better executive functioning is associated with greater recollection, but is unrelated to familiarity performance (Anderson et al, 2008). This is consistent with the view that familiarity is a much more automatic kind of memory and depends much less on executive function than intentional recollection, and consequently, the prefrontal/organizational hypothesis would predict that familiarity should be relatively spared, as has been reported (e.g., Mayes & Daum, 1996).…”

“…However, the lack of a guidance condition interaction with group for familiarity together with the lack of effect of condition indicates that the weakly significant PD familiarity deficit noted in C1, if reliable, is more likely to reflect perirhinal cortex/ medial temporal cortex dysfunction rather than frontal cortex dysfunction, contrary to the proposal of Cohn et al (2010). This point has been discussed previously in the Introduction in relation to functional imaging work (see Henson et al, 1999), prefrontal lesion studies (Duarte et al, 2005;MacPherson, et al, 2008) and behavioural evidence from older adults (Anderson, et al, 2008), and is explored further in later sections of the Discussion with reference to modulation of hippocampal function by the dopaminergic midbrain, evidence of hippocampal atrophy in nondementing PD, and Braak et al's (2003) staging model of PD.…”

“…Of late, this distinction has also come to play a prominent role in the study of aging (e.g., Anderson, Jennings, Cabeza, Ebert, Grady, & Graham, 2008;Dennis, Kim, & Cabeza, 2007;Parks, 2007;Skinner, & Fernandes, 2008;Toth & Parks, 2006) and cognitive impairment (e.g., Reyna & Mills, 2007;Schacter & Slotnick, 2004;Yonelinas, 2002). The picture in the memory development literature is quite different.…”

“…13 Over the last two decades, a number of cognitive studies in young adults have provided empirical evidence for the distinction between item and relational memory. [14][15][16][17] Of relevance here, several recent reports suggest that persons with a diagnosis of MCI show a disproportionate decrease in relational memory, 18,19 and that the relational memory deficits in this group can be predictive of future cognitive impairment. 20,21 The current study was the first to examine whether dissociations between item and relational memory might exist in persons with multiple sport-related concussions.…”
