Cambridge University Press (Verlag)
978-1-009-32241-6 (ISBN)
Fully updated for the second edition, this text remains a comprehensive and current treatment of the cognitive neuroscience of memory. Featuring a new chapter on group differences in long-term memory, areas covered also include cognitive neuroscience methods, human brain mechanisms underlying long-term memory success, long-term memory failure, implicit memory, working memory, memory and disease, memory in animals, and recent developments in the field. Both spatial and temporal aspects of brain processing during different types of memory are emphasized. Each chapter includes numerous pedagogical tools, including learning objectives, background information, further reading, review questions, and figures. Slotnick also explores current debates in the field and critiques of popular views, portraying the scientific process as a constantly changing, iterative, and collaborative endeavor.
Scott Slotnick is a Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at Boston College, Editor-in-Chief of the journal Cognitive Neuroscience, Book-Series Editor for the Cambridge Fundamentals of Neuroscience in Psychology, author of the book Controversies in Cognitive Neuroscience (2012), and author of over 100 scientific articles. Professor Slotnick is a Fellow of the Psychonomic Society and a member of the Cognitive Neuroscience Society and the Society for Neuroscience. He employs multiple cognitive psychology and cognitive neuroscience techniques including quantitative psychology, computational neuroscience, behavioural studies electroencephalography (EEG), event-related potentials (ERPs), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), and research with patients.
