“…Performance in EM has been traditionally related to intact medial temporal lobe (MTL) structures, whereby the hippocampus orchestrates learning and retrieval in conjunction with the entorhinal, perirhinal, and parahippocampal cortices (Dickerson & Eichenbaum, 2010). By contrast, EFs largely rely on the integrity of prefrontal and other frontal regions, and to some extent of parietal cortex (Friedman & Miyake, 2017; Gläscher et al, 2009). Earlier seminal works conducted on patients with focal brain lesions showed that EM and EFs, although functionally related, are in part behaviorally dissociable, that is, patients with selective MTL damage display EFs within normal psychometric ranges (Augustinack et al, 2014; Buckner, 2004; McKenna & Gerhand, 2002; Rosenbaum et al, 2005), while patients suffering from prefrontal insult demonstrate relatively preserved aspects of EM, especially in recognition memory (Milner, Corsi, & Leonard, 1991; Shimamura, Janowsky, & Squire, 1990; Wheeler & Stuss, 2003).…”
