The Transfer-appropriate Processing (TAP) framework has demonstrated enhanced recognition memory when processing operations engaged at encoding and at test match. Our research applied TAP to study the illusory truth effect (ITE). We investigated whether the match/mismatch of evaluative goals at encoding and at test affects the ITE. At encoding, participants saw target words (Experiments 1-3; or full trivia claims Experiments 4-5) and completed an evaluative goal: imagery task vowel-counting. At test, participants saw target words embedded in trivia claims that were old or new and completed the same (matching) or different (mismatching) evaluative goal that they completed at encoding, before making truth or memory ratings. We found a typical TAP effect for memory judgements when people saw words at encoding, but no TAP effect when people saw claims at encoding. We also found an ITE when people saw claims at encoding, but no ITE when people saw words at encoding (no evidence of TAP moderating truth judgments). Together these results extend both the TAP and ITE literatures, suggesting boundary conditions for TAP and the conditions under which the ITE emerges.

Hippocampal Functions Modulate Transfer-Appropriate Cortical Representations Supporting Subsequent Memory.
J Neurosci

Department of Psychology & Neuroscience, Duke University, Durham 27708, North Carolina
The hippocampus plays a central role as a coordinate system or index of information stored in neocortical loci. Nonetheless, it remains unclear how hippocampal processes integrate with cortical information to facilitate successful memory encoding. Thus, the goal of the current study was to identify specific hippocampal-cortical interactions that support object encoding.

The potential of viruses as appropriate vectors for the development of new therapeutic strategies, as well as for the design of molecular (DNA, RNA, and/or protein) vaccines via substitution of nucleotide sequences, has been proven. Among the most appropriate DNA and/or RNA fragments, members belonging to families (particularly adeno-associated virus, AAV) and have frequently been suggested for this purpose. In previous studies, the vaccine avipoxvirus strains FK (fowl) and Dessau (pigeon) have been proven able to infect mammalian cells (as well as avian cells), and to replicate productively in a small number of them; thus, we may be able to adapt them using incubation, and in these conditions.

Article Synopsis
- - Research shows that divided attention (DA) has a bigger negative impact on memory encoding than on retrieval, suggesting different attention processes might be at play in these two phases of memory (Chun & Johnson, 2011; Craik et al., 1996).
- - The study investigates the Attentional Boost Effect (ABE), where detecting targets in a secondary task enhances the learning of other stimuli, but this benefit does not carry over to retrieval tasks, leading to worse recognition of words paired with targets compared to those paired with distractors.
- - Findings from multiple experiments support the idea that encoding and retrieval use different types of attention (external vs. internal), challenging the notion that the same processes govern both phases and suggesting
The effect of survival processing on memory for pictures depends on how memory is tested.

Two experiments investigated the effects of survival processing on memory for pictures of objects. In experiment 1, participants were presented with 32 pictures of common objects and rated them for their relevance to a survival scenario, a moving home scenario, or for pleasantness. In a surprise recall test, participants in the survival condition recalled more of the verbal labels of the objects than participants in the moving and pleasantness conditions.
