Previous prospective memory studies have revealed some important features of encoding, retrieval, and the match between the encoding and the retrieval that contribute to prospective memory performance. However, these studies have not provided evidence concerning the relative importance of these three factors because no study has investigated all three in a single design. We developed a laboratory-based paradigm that allowed us to manipulate different characteristics of encoding, retrieval, and the match between encoding and retrieval simultaneously in a single experiment. The results of eight experiments showed that all three factors have an influence on prospective memory performance, but that the match between encoding and retrieval has a significantly larger influence than either encoding or retrieval factors.

Creative problem solving and memory are inherently intertwined: memory accesses existing knowledge while creativity enhances it. Recent studies show that insights often accompanying creative solutions enhance long-term memory. This insight memory advantage (IMA) is explained by the 'insight as prediction error (PE)' hypothesis which states that insights arise from PEs updating predictive solution models and thereby enhancing memory.

Potassium, an essential inorganic cation, is crucial for the growth of oil crops like L. Given the scarcity of potassium in soil, enhancing rapeseed's potassium utilization efficiency is of significant importance. This study identified 376 potassium utilization genes in the genome of ZS11 through homologous retrieval, encompassing 7 functional and 12 regulatory gene families.

This study investigates whether the context in which a word is learnt affects noun and verb learning. There is mixed evidence in studies of noun learning, and no studies of background perceptual context in verb learning. Two-, three-, and four-year-olds (n = 162) saw a novel object moved in a novel way while hearing four novel words, either nouns or verbs.

Memory is a dynamic process of encoding, storing, and retrieving information. It includes sensory, short-term, and long-term memory, each with unique characteristics. Nitric oxide (NO) is a biological messenger synthesized on demand by neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) through a biochemical process initiated by glutamate binding to NMDA receptors, causing membrane depolarization and calcium influx.

Differential Computation Analysis (DCA) leverages memory traces to extract secret keys, bypassing countermeasures employed in white-box designs, such as encodings. Although researchers have made great efforts to enhance security against DCA, most solutions considerably decrease algorithmic efficiency. In our approach, the Feistel cipher SM4 is implemented by a series of table-lookup operations, and the input and output of each table are protected by affine transformations and nonlinear encodings generated randomly.
