▼ In this thesis we consider estimation of the tail index for heavy tailed stochastic volatility models with long memory. We prove a central limit theorem for a Hill estimator. In particular, it is shown that neither the rate of convergence nor the asymptotic variance is affected by long memory. The theoretical findings are verified by simulation studies.

▼ Conventional time series theory and spectral analysis have independently achieved significant popularity in mainstream economics and finance research over
long periods. However, the fact remains that each is somewhat lacking if the other is absent. To overcome this problem, a new methodology, wavelet analysis, has been developed to capture all the information localized in time and in frequency, which provides us with an ideal tool to study non-stationary time series. This paper aims to explore the application of a variety of wavelet-based methodologies in conjunction with conventional techniques, such as the Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) models and
long-
memory parameter estimates, in analysing the short and
long term dependence structure of financial returns and volatility. Specifically, by studying the
long-
memory property of these time series we hope to identify the source of their possible predictability. Above all else, we document the indispensable role of trading activities associated with low frequencies in determining the
long-run dependence of volatility. It follows that GARCH models incorporating
long-
memory and asymmetric returns-volatility dynamics can provide reasonably accurate volatility forecasts. Additionally, the persistence parameter of returns, represented by the Hurst index, is observed to be correlated to trading profits obtained from typical technical rules designed to detect and capitalize on existing trending behaviour of stock prices. This implies that the Hurst index can be used as a good indicator of the
long-
memory characteristic of the market, which in turn drives such trending behaviour.

▼ We examine the maintenance and behavioural expression of long-term memories acquired in the absence of the hippocampus. The hypothesis that the hippocampus is necessary to form stable and detailed long-term memories is tested. We find rats with extensive hippocampal damage made before learning exhibit normal maintenance and behavioural expression of contextual fear memory, object discrimination, and context discrimination. The discovery that non-hippocampal networks can encode, maintain, and retrieve memories, widely-thought to be dependent on the hippocampus and its consolidation processes adds to a growing body of literature which draws into question most views of the hippocampus and memory consolidation. Our findings suggest: 1) hippocampal-dependent systems-level consolidation is not required for stable long-term memory in the rat; 2) non-hippocampal networks possess sufficient representational complexity to support normal discriminative memory-guided behaviours; 3) the broad distinction between hippocampal and non-hippocampal memories requires re-evaluation through rigorous experimentation, rather than adherence to modal views.

▼ The prime goal of this research is to model the long-range dependency and volatility factors fitting in fractionally differenced ARMA (ARFIMA) and Gegenbauer ARMA processes (GARMA) in financial time series. This extends the efficiency in computing the exact maximum likelihood established by Sowell through conditional quasi maximum likelihood (QMLE) for ARFIMA and GARMA with conditional heteroscedastic errors. In particular, an extended algorithm together with corresponding asymptotic results of QMLE estimators are presented. The Monte Carlo simulation methods are used to study asymptotic properties and report the convergence rate for parameter estimates. Portmanteau test statistics are employed to check the model adequacy. As an application of this theory in the financial industry, a GARMA-GARCH model is fitted to daily returns of China Shanghai Composite stock index.

Effects of healthy ageing on the precision of episodic memory.

▼ Episodic memory decline is one of the hallmarks of human cognitive ageing, but our understanding of the neurocognitive mechanisms underlying this decline remains limited. In particular, it is unclear whether healthy ageing differentially affects distinct components of episodic memory retrieval; specifically, the probability of successfully retrieving information from memory, and the quality, or precision, of the retrieved memory representations. The research reported in this PhD thesis used continuous measures of memory retrieval to dissociate these two alternative sources of age-related memory deficits and their cognitive and neural underpinnings, providing more detailed insight into the nature of age-related episodic memory decline.
Two behavioural experiments reported in Chapter 2 provided initial evidence for differential effects of healthy ageing on the success and precision of episodic memory retrieval, suggesting greater sensitivity of mnemonic precision to age-related declines. Chapter 3 assessed whether these decreases in memory precision are specific to long-term memory or may be explained by age-related decreases in the fidelity of perceptual or working memory processes. The results from this experiment demonstrated that age-related reductions in the precision of episodic memory retrieval persisted after controlling for decreases in the fidelity of perception and working memory, suggesting a predominantly long-term memory basis for this deficit.
The functional and structural magnetic resonance imaging experiments reported in Chapters 4 and 5 sought to elucidate the neural basis of age-related changes in the success and precision of episodic memory retrieval. Results from Chapter 4 revealed distinct encoding and retrieval contributions to the decreases in these two aspects of memory retrieval exhibited by older adults. At retrieval, age-related reductions in activity associated with successful memory retrieval were observed in the hippocampus, while decreases in activity underlying the precision of memory retrieval were evident in the angular gyrus. Furthermore, at encoding, age-related decreases in activity predicting both later success and precision of memory retrieval were evident in the fusiform gyrus, while prefrontal reductions were observed in the encoding activity predicting the subsequent success of memory retrieval only. In addition to these functional changes, Chapter 5 provided evidence for the role of structural integrity of the lateral parietal cortex in individual differences in mnemonic precision across older adults.
Together, the results reported in this thesis highlight the sensitivity of memory precision to age-related cognitive decline, and suggest both distinct and common factors underlying age-related decreases in the success and precision of episodic memory retrieval.

▼ Expectation for context is perhaps the most influential contributor to episodic
memory. Although research has investigated the influence of functional components of scene context in perception, little is known about the independent contributions of these components to
long-term episodic
memory. In this investigation we find that different from perception, these components make substantially different contributions to
memory. Namely, the global context component that binds objects to natural scenes is important at short study times, where a lack of global binding information appears to disrupt meaning extraction. Local context components that bind objects to each other within a scene (i.e., spatial and associative) are important for sustaining
memory performance. Disrupted spatial information forces a longer visual search, which requires more study time for effective encoding. Lacking associative information has a detrimental effect on recall following short study times—effectively equating performance to short term
memory. This has important theoretical implications.

▼ The purpose of the present study is to look at short-term and
long-term
memory differences between persons who do and do not stutter. Adults who do and do not stutter listened to lists of 12 phonologically related, 12 semantically related, and 12 neutral words. Both groups will be required to recall these words immediately and after a 20-minute time delay where participants were presented with interference tasks. It was hypothesized that persons who stutter would demonstrate lower recall than adults who do not stutter on the immediate recall of phonological lists but that no such differences would be observed for the semantic or control lists. Further, that after multiple exposures to these word lists the initial immediate recall differences will dissipate. Taken together, these predictions would lend further support to the notion that phonological working
memory is initially more taxing for AWS. No significant differences were seen on short-term or
long-term accuracy rates between speaker groups for the phonological, semantic, or control list conditions. AWS saw a significantly higher rate of increase on performance from first to last short-term trials on phonological condition than AWNS counterpart. This difference was not seen for semantic or control conditions.

▼ Older adults exhibit a deficit in associative
long-term
memory relative to younger adults. However the associative deficit of older adults is less apparent in short-term
memory or working
memory; the literature is inconclusive regarding whether this deficit is attenuated or consistent with the deficit in
long-term
memory. In order to help elucidate the issue, three experiments assessed younger and older adults' item and associative
memory and the effects of several variables that might have potentially contributed to the inconsistent pattern of results in previous studies. In Experiment 1, participants were tested on item and associative recognition
memory with both
long-term and short-term retention intervals in a single, continuous recognition paradigm. There was an associative deficit for older adults in the short-term as well as the
long-term intervals. To examine the potential effect of test event salience discrepancies between the item and associative tests, Experiment 2 utilized mixed and blocked test designs of the same paradigm of Experiment 1, using only short-term intervals. Blocking the test did not attenuate the age-related associative deficit seen in the mixed test blocks. Finally, in Experiment 3, study material was presented sequentially, as in Experiments 1 and 2, or simultaneously. An age-related associative deficit was found in both conditions. Even while accounting for some methodological discrepancies, the associative deficit of older adults is evident in short-term/working
memory.

▼ Long-term memory has been widely studied, but it is unclear whether it can influence processing efficiency. In the past, researchers have focused on the effect of familiarity through repeated exposure to examine effects on subsequent processing. Behavioural, electrophysiological, and neuroimaging studies have demonstrated processing savings at an early stage for simple and complex visual stimuli. However, other researchers have argued that familiarity has a negligible or even a negative effect on processing mechanisms, making it unclear whether benefits can be attained at all.
In the present study, we used complex real-world scenes to investigate the effects of familiarity on early processing of visual information and to investigate the mechanisms that could be responsible for any effects. In a pilot study, we established that there was an effect of familiarity on early scene processing. Thus, the present study examined the effect of different memory representations on early scene processing (Experiment 1), and investigated a potential underlying attentional mechanism of the processing benefits (Experiment 2).
In Experiment 1, we explored whether familiarity effects on processing were due to a priming of a scene’s low-level perceptual details from a single image (Familiar Viewpoint) or due to a scene’s high-level conceptual representation from multiple viewpoints (Familiar Place). A lack of power within the study did not allow us to draw conclusions from the data; however, the findings suggest that there may be a benefit for familiar information. In Experiment 2, we explored whether processing savings from familiarity were due to fewer attentional resources required for familiar scenes. The availability of resources was manipulated using a dual-task paradigm. We found no performance detriment to scene processing under low and high cognitive load conditions. Our findings likely reflect a change in strategy and prioritization of scene processing over the secondary task, indicating that more sensitive methods of measuring attentional resources are required. In summary, long-term memory from perceptually-driven and conceptually-based representations can affect early scene processing mechanisms, without any effect on the underlying attentional resources needed for familiar information.

▼ Veterans have returned from the OEF/OIF combat theatre with a multitude of physical and psychological problems that affect neuropsychological functioning and quality of life (QOL). Often, neuropsychological function is difficult to remedy in treatment, thus a more efficacious treatment would focus on a mediation factor to improve QOL. This study set out to determine whether coping mediated the relationship between neuropsychological functioning and QOL outcomes in Veterans. Participants were 136 men and women enrolled in an ongoing study of returning war Veterans. Results indicated that an active coping style was a full mediator between
long-term verbal
memory and QOL outcome. Attention and short-term verbal
memory were good predictors of quality of life, but were not mediated by coping style. Treatments that include action-focused coping skills may be beneficial, however, cognitive deficits should be accounted for in treatment planning to improve QOL in Veterans.

▼ Present value based asset pricing models are explored empirically in this thesis. Three contributions are made. First, it is shown that a market timing strategy may be implemented in an excessively volatile market such as the S&P500. The main premise of the strategy is that asset prices may revert to the present value over time. The present value is computed in real-time where the present value variables (future dividends, dividend growth and the discount factor) are forecast from simple models. The strategy works well for monthly data and when dividends are forecast from autoregressive models. The performance of the strategy relies on how discount rates are empirically defined. When discount rates are defined by the rolling and recursive historic average of realized returns, the strategy performs well. The discount rate and dividend growth can also be derived using a structural approach. Using the Campbell and Shiller log-linearized present value equation, and assuming that expected and realized dividend growth are unit related, a state space model is constructed linking the price-dividend ratio to expected returns and expected dividend growth. The model parameters are estimated from the data and, are used to derive the filtered expected returns and expected dividend growth series. The present value is computed using the filtered series. The trading rule tends to perform worse in this case. Discount rates are again found to be the major determinant of its success. Although the structural approach offers a time series of discount rates which is less volatile, it is on average higher than that of the historical mean model. The filtered expected returns is a potential predictor of realized returns. The predictive performance of expected returns is compared to that of the price-dividend ratio. It is found that expected returns is not superior to the price-dividend ratio in forecasting returns both in-sample and out-of-sample. The predictive regression included both simple Ordinary Least Squares and Vector Autoregressions. The second contribution of this thesis is the modeling of expected returns using autoregressive fractionally integrated processes. According to the work of Granger and Joyeux(1980), aggregated series which are derived from utility maximization problems follow a Beta distribution. In the time series literature, it implies that the series may have a fractional order (I(d)). Autoregressive fractionally models may have better appeal than models which explicitly posit unit roots or no unit roots. Two models are presented. The first model, which incorporates an ARFIMA(p,d,q) within the present value through the state equations, is found to be highly unstable. Small sample size may be a reason for this finding. The second model involves predicting dividend growth from simple OLS models, and sequentially netting expected returns from the present value model. Based on the previous finding that expected returns may be a long memory process, the third contribution of this thesis derives a test of long memory…

▼ This dissertation focuses on the AR approximation of
long memory processes and its applications. The first chapter
proposes an easy test for two stationary autoregressive
fractionally integrated moving average (ARFIMA) processes being
uncorrelated via AR approximations. We prove that an ARFIMA (p,d,q)
process, φ(L)(1-L)
dy
t = θ(L)e
t, d∈ (0,0.5),
where e
t is a white noise, can be approximated well by an
autoregressive (AR) model and establish the theoretical foundation
of Haugh's (1976) statistics to test two ARFIMA processes being
uncorrelated. The Haugh statistic is useful because it can avoid
the issues of spurious regression induced by the
long memory
processes considered by Tsay and Chung (2000). Using AIC or
Mallow's C
p criterion as a guide, we demonstrate through Monte
Carlo studies that a lower order AR(k) model is sufficient to
prewhitten an ARFIMA process and the Haugh test statistics after AR
pre-whitening perform very well in finite sample. We illustrate the
use of our methodology by investigating the independence between
the volatility of two daily nominal dollar exchange rates-Euro and
Japanese Yen. We find that there exists "strongly simultaneous
correlation " between the volatilities of Euro and Yen within 30
days.; The second paper extends the analysis of Lewis and Reinsel
(1985) to the r-dimensional I(d) process y
t, where d>0, i.e.,
we consider the problems of the linear prediction of y
t+1 based
on y
t,y
t-1,\dots, using a VAR model of order k fitted to a
realization of T observations y
1,y
2,\dots,y
T. Assuming
that k grows with T at a suitable rate, along with other regularity
conditions imposed on y
t, the consistency of the multivariate
least squares (LS) coefficient estimator and that of the residual
covariance matrix estimator \widehat Σ
k are derived, and
the one-step ahead prediction error based on the VAR(k) model is
shown to converge in probability to its population counterpart.;
Furthermore, a Monte Carlo experiment is carried out to assess the
effect of estimating autoregressive parameters on the mean square
prediction error. The results reveal that the average observed
squared prediction errors from using the VAR(k) model are very
close to the finite sample approximation formula Σ
k(h)
derived by Lewis and Reinsel (1985) for the weakly dependent
processes.

▼ Amyloid proteins are associated with protein
misfolding and aggregation diseases but also many functional
amyloid proteins are discovered with physiological role. During the
process of amyloid fibril formation, non fibrillar oligomeric
species are seen. They are thought to play an important role in
nucleation process and amyloid core formation. The focus of our
project is the functional amyloid protein Orb2 which plays an
important role in
long term
memory formation in Drosophila. We
propose an amphiphillic helix at the N terminal which regulates the
oligomer formation and aggregation of Orb2 isoform A. We found that
Orb2A rapidly assembles into soluble oligomers measuring ~125 nm
radius. These oligomers are predominantly α‐helical secondary
structure. A point mutation in the N terminal region of Orb2A
(F5Y), which prevents
long term
memory formation in Drosophila,
disrupts the helical structure of oligomers and appears to
stabilize oligomeric state. The N terminal 22 amino acid peptide
forms a mixture of secondary structure thus suggesting involvement
of other domains or external factors in helicity of early stage
oligomers. We developed to semi denaturating SDS‐agarose gel
electrophoresis method to resolve early stage soluble oligomeric
species.

▼ A computer system that supports frequency scaling cannot be guaranteed an optimal frequency selection when it does not have information about the workloads that it is running. Algorithms in previous work either select the best frequency for the current period only reacting to changes, whereas others aim at predicting the future state to select the best frequency for the following period. This project investigates the latter type of algorithms and proposes two machine learning-based models to predict the performance of a workload at runtime. We first motivate the importance of predicting changes and demonstrate that this is a challenging problem because they are very infrequent. Previous work has used table-based predictors of phases, but we eliminate the use of tables and frame our problem as a time series forecasting problem. Various approaches have been proposed for time series forecasting over the years. Most recently, machine learning based approaches have shown superior results. Our models are based on a machine learning structure called
long short term
memory (LSTM) that can process time-dependent data. One of our models is trained by feeding its LSTM with the consecutive observations from the traces to perform continuous forecasting. The other model compresses them first and uses run-length encoding (RLE) to train the LSTM to find workload changes. We apply our approach for workload prediction on state-of-the-art computer platforms. We generate traces by periodically collecting data from the performance monitoring units of an Intel 10th-generation platform. We split traces into training and test sets for learning and prediction. Results show that despite changes being infrequent, a continuous forecasting model performs better than a RLE-based one. Compared to an approach that simply predicts the current value for the next period, continuous forecasting can predict 43% of the performance changes while a RLE-based model only predicts 14%. Overall, continuous and RLE-based forecasting decrease the forecasting error by 7% and 5% compared to same-value prediction

▼ Synaptic plasticity (long-term potentiation, LTP and long-term depression, LTD) plays an important role in processes of learning and memory formation. In order to provide a link between these neurophysiological and cognitive processes the following experiments were performed using behavioral, electrophysiological, and pharmacological in vivo methods in order to describe synaptic plasticity in the adult rat visual system after learning a simple visual discrimination task.
Initially, a novel method is described providing a simple and noninvasive means to restrict visual input. Using a harness and face-mask for monocular occlusion, rats were trained in a monocular visual discrimination task using a Y-shaped water maze. Following learning, assessment of synaptic plasticity in the thalamocortical visual pathway found both general (changes in short-term plasticity in both cerebral hemispheres) and localized changes (greater LTP levels in the hemisphere contralateral to the open eye). The enhanced LTP in the primary visual cortex (V1) was blocked by an NR2B antagonist, suggesting that training resulted in changes in NMDA receptor expression or functioning.
Next, the effectiveness of LTD stimulation protocols to elicit synaptic depression under in vivo conditions were assessed. Of several single-pulse induction protocols tested, only strong low frequency burst stimulation (SLFS) produced significant, but transient (~20 min) depression in V1 (not affected by blockade of NMDA or metabotrobic glutamate receptors). These data highlight the resistance of the thalamocortical visual system to undergo synaptic depression in vivo. To examine whether learning alters LTD induction, SLFS was delivered to the thalamocortical visual pathway or the V1-perirhinal cortex pathway following visual discrimination. Neither pathway exhibited changes in LTD following training, suggesting that the learning-induced LTP facilitation reflects an expansion of the synaptic modification range.
Finally, the role of different populations of NMDA receptors (cortical vs. thalamic) in LTP induction in naïve and visually trained rats was examined. Surprisingly, naïve rats do not require activation of cortical NMDA receptors to express LTP, while LTP in trained rats involved the activation of both thalamic and cortical NMDA receptors. In summary, this thesis provides novel evidence for a metaplastic, training-induced up-regulation of LTP mechanisms in the thalamocortical visual system of adult rats.

▼ We sought to create a test that could delineate memory for semantically related and unrelated associative and item information, for future use with patients with temporal lobe epilepsy in the study of accelerated long-term forgetting. Healthy participants studied semantically related and unrelated object-scene pairs and completed forced-choice recognition tasks for item and associative memory over variable delays. Participants recognized significantly less associative than item stimuli by 6-hours post-study due to degraded memory for associative stimuli. While item memory remained stable, memory was boosted for associative stimuli after a night of sleep but continued to decline thereafter. These effects were particularly robust for pairs that were semantically unrelated, as semantically related pairs demonstrated superior memory across the delays with relatively minimal decay over time. Possible neurobiological correlates of forgetting for the different types of stimuli in the context of current theories of consolidation are discussed, and implications for the phase II patient study are explored.

▼ Monitoring the accuracy of memory is an automatic but essential process of memory encoding and retrieval. Retrospective memory confidence judgments are making effective and efficient decisions based on one's memories. The neural processes involved in retrospective confidence ratings were investigated with EEG and fMRI using a recognition memory task designed such that participants also rated their confidence in their memory response. Correct trials (hits and correct rejections) were examined for differences related to the participants' level of confidence in their response. There were significant differences in electrophysiological activity (in the FN400 and the late parietal component) associated with confidence rating, with mean deflection increasing as confidence decreased. fMRI analysis revealed activity that appeared to be specific to the process of confidence rating. Activity was found to increase in the medial frontal, lateral frontal, and lateral parietal cortices as confidence decreases, but only for hits. In the lateral frontal, lateral parietal, and medial parietal cortices, activity decreased as confidence increased. These data indicate that there are neural mechanisms specifically related to making retrospective memory confidence judgments.

▼ We examined how associations between real world auditory scenes and the location of an embedded auditory target influence spatial attention after a delay period. Healthy young adults (N= 16) formed strong memories for spatial locations of targets within sound scenes, which biased attention one hour later. Participants showed gains in reaction time (100ms) and accuracy (12% increase) to locate targets proceeded by valid memory cues (scenes for which target-context associations were formed) compared to neutral cues. We also found a positive relationship (r =.55, p

▼ The success rate of high school and college students in algebra is low (Tyson et al., 2007; Croft, 2006). As such, the present study compared the effectiveness of conceptual and procedural algebra “refresher” interventions for 63 college students and investigated the relationship of cognitive variables to math outcome. Results revealed that participants in both interventions improved significantly from pretest to posttest, but that there was no significant difference between the two interventions. However, a follow-up analysis in which participants who scored at ceiling or at floor on pretest were excluded revealed an advantage for the conceptual treatment group relative to the procedural group in terms of educationally meaningful effect size (d = +0.53). There were no relationships between cognitive variables and math outcomes; however, in the follow-up analysis,
long-term
memory was positively correlated with posttest performance, but working
memory and executive functioning were still unrelated to math outcomes. There was no interaction between cognitive variables and posttest performance of the two groups, which likely reflects the lack of differential treatment effects or robust zero-order correlations. The present study addresses the shortage of research on algebra, particularly the shortage of experiments that compare the effectiveness of different algebraic interventions. It also provides insight into intervention methods that educators may potentially use.

Brzo i tačno procesiranje lica i facijalne
ekspresije emocija ključno je za uspešnu socijalnu interakciju i
komunikaciju. Jedno od otvorenih pitanja je odnos ovih dvaju
procesa. Da li je procesiranje identiteta i facijalne ekspresije
međusobno nezavisno ili je u nekoj vrsti interakcije? Prethodne
studije ne daju nedvosmislene odgovore, naprotiv, otvaraju nova
pitanja. Ovim radom pokušali smo da ispitamo odnos procesiranja
identiteta i facijalne ekspresije kod ljudi bez neuroloških ili
vizuelnih oštećenja modifikujući i unapređujući metodologiju
prethodnih istraživanja. Umesto korišćenja nejasno definisanih
kategorija facijalne ekspresije emocija (pozitivne nasuprot
negativnim) ili samo određenih ekspresija emocija, uključili smo
sve bazične emocije (sem straha). Zasebno smo ispitivali odnos
procesiranja identiteta i facijalne ekspresije u dugoročnoj i
kratkoročnoj memoriji. Za testiranje odnosa procesiranja identiteta
i ekspresije u kratkoročnoj memoriji korišćen je zadatak
uparivanja, dok je za testiranje dugoročne memorije korišćen je
zadatak prepoznavanja. Kako bi se ispitala priroda odnosa ispitivan
je uticaj identiteta na procesiranje facijalne ekspresije emocija i
obrnuto. Na kraju, kreirali smo i modifikovani zadatak
prepoznavanja kojim smo želeli da ispitamo efekat konteksta u kome
je neko lice naučeno. Prvi deo istraživanja ispitivao je uticaj
facijalne ekspresije na procesiranje identiteta. Dobijeni rezultati
potvrdili su interakciju kako u kratkoročnoj (eksperiment 1) tako i
u dugoročnoj memoriji (eksperiment 2). Ovi eksperimenti su pokazali
da prilikom procesiranja identiteta nije moguće isključiti
procesiranje facijalne ekspresije emocija. Drugi deo istraživanja
ispitivao je uticaj identiteta na procesiranje facijalne
ekspresije. Ponovo, utvrđena je jasna interakcija između
procesiranja identiteta i facijalne ekspresije (eksperiment 3).
Uzevši zajedno, ovakvi rezultati pokazuju da je odnos procesiranja
identiteta i facijalne ekspresije međusobno zavisan i simetričan.
Trećim delom istraživanja pokušali smo da ispitamo uticaj konteksta
u kome je neko lice naučeno na tačnost pamćenja lica sa određenom
ekspresijom. Rezultati nisu jednoznačni pa je dalja provera
neophodna. Ipak, preliminarni rezultati pokazuju da bi kontekst
mogao imati važnu ulogu na pamćenje određenih lica viđenih sa
konkretnom facijalnom ekspresijom. Buduća istraživanja trebalo bi
da osmisle bolji eksperimentalni zadatak koji će omogućiti detaljno
ispitivanje ovog fenomena. Analiza dobijenih podataka (osim potvrde
međusobno zavisnog odnosa procesiranja identiteta i facijalne
ekspresije) takođe je, u svim eksperimentima, pokazala razlike
između procesiranja pojedinačnih ekspresija emocija. Ovakav
rezultat potvrđuje da je bitno uključiti sve facijalne ekspresije
emocija. Različito procesiranje ekspresija koje se u nekim ranijim
istraživanjima klasifikovane u istu grupu, npr. negativne
ekspresije, pokazuje da nije opravdano generalizovati rezultate i
na ekspresije koje nisu…

▼ Automaticity is extremely common in our daily lives: we perform many routine tasks (e.g. reading) effortlessly with little thought or conscious awareness. In one of the most famous studies published in the field of cognitive psychology, Shiffrin and Schneider (1977) demonstrated how automaticity could be achieved with
long training that mapped stimuli to responses consistently (denoted CM). Their demonstrations used visual and
memory search for small numbers of items. The many years since those reports notwithstanding, the precise cognitive and neurological mechanisms that underlie the development of automaticity remain elusive. My thesis aims to explore
memory search with empirical studies and in particular with quantitative modeling to specify the way that automaticity develops, the rate at which it does so, and the degree to which its development is an automatic consequence of training. To address this issue with computational modeling, I adapted the Exemplar-Based-Random-Walk (EBRW) model. This model has provided excellent accounts of accuracy data and response time data in categorization learning. I extended EBRW to incorporate well-established theories about automaticity learning, specifically, learning of item-response associations in
long-term
memory. The resultant models were applied to tasks mixing items that were and were not trained consistently, and were compared to alternatives that produced behavior as a consequence of other well-known processes such as decisions based on familiarity. The results demonstrate that the development and use of automaticity is not simply a matter of consistent training, and shows the importance of strategies. A study with measures from an electroencephalogram provided further insights into the processes used to carry out
memory search. Both the empirical studies and the modeling suggest that the development of automaticity is a result of a complex interaction of attention, strategy,
memory, and learning.

▼ Abstract for Chapter 2: The ability to remember
others’ actions is fundamental to social cognition, but the
precision of action memories remain unknown. To probe the fidelity
of the action representations stored in visual
long-term
memory, we
asked observers to view a large number of computer-animated
actions. Afterward, observers were shown pairs of actions and
indicated which of the two actions they had seen for each pair. On
some trials, the previously viewed action was paired with an action
from a different action category, and on other trials, it was
paired with an action from the same category. Accuracy on both
types of trials was remarkably high (81% and 82%, respectively).
Further, results from a second experiment showed that the action
representations maintained in visual
long-term
memory can be nearly
as precise as the action representations maintained in visual
working
memory. Together, these findings provide evidence for a
mechanism in visual
long-term
memory that maintains high-fidelity
representations of observed actions. ❧ Abstract for Chapter 3: How
does visual
long-term
memory store representations of different
entities (e.g., objects, actions, scenes) that are present in the
same visual event? Are the different entities stored as an
integrated representation in
memory, or are they stored separately?
To address this question, we asked observers to view a large number
of events; in each event, an action was performed within a scene.
Afterward, participants were shown pairs of action-scene sets and
indicated which of the two they had seen. When the task required
recognizing the individual actions and scenes, performance was high
(80%). Conversely, when the task required remembering which actions
occurred within which scenes, performance was significantly lower
(59%). We observed this dissociation between
memory for individual
entities and
memory for entity binding across multiple testing
conditions and presentation durations. These experiments indicate
that visual
long-term
memory stores action and scene information
separately from one another, even when the action and scene were
observed together in the same visual event. These findings also
highlight an important limitation of human
memory: situations that
require remembering actions and scenes as integrated events (e.g.,
eyewitness testimony) may be particularly vulnerable to
memory
errors. ❧ Abstract for Chapter 4: Human beings rely on visual
information from
long-term
memory to guide cognition and behavior.
Little is known, however, about how different visual entities that
are observed together, such as objects, scenes and actions, are
stored in
long-term
memory. In this study, participants were
presented with a large number of object-scene sets, each set having
a 3D object displayed in the center of a 2D scene. Afterward, they
were tested on their
memory for the observed objects and scenes
(entity
memory) or their
memory on which objects were displayed in
which scenes (binding
memory).
Memory performance was examined
under three different…

▼ The current study attempted to determine whether direct binding between objects in complex scenes occurs as a function of directed attention at encoding. In Experiment 1, participants viewed objects in one of these different types contexts: unique scenes, similar scenes, or arrays with no contextual information. Critically, only half of the objects were attended for each encoding trial. Participants then completed an associative recognition task on pairs of items created from the previously studied scenes. Test pairs consisted of two attended or unattended objects, and were associated with a unique scene, a similar scene, or an array. Evidence of binding for attended objects was clear. Associative recognition was better for attended pairs, relative to unattended pairs, regardless of the type of context in which the objects were studied. Object-context binding was not observed in memory for attended object pairs, but was observed for unattended object pairs. Experiment 2 explored the extent to which binding strength between object relationships varies as a function of temporal and/or spatial proximity. The procedure for Experiment 2 was identical to Experiment 1, with the exception that all of the objects in the encoding trials were attended. There were no significant main effects or interactions of spatial and temporal distance on binding strength, as measured by associative recognition.

▼ Current theories accurately view working memory as a multi -component structure, including a phonological store, a visuospatial sketchpad and a central executive. These components have been roughly identified with known brain areas and neuropsychological functions. However, the neural mechanisms for memory encoding and retrieval remain largely controversial, especially the mechanisms for serial order. These open questions warrant courageous attempts to tackle these problems computationally; that is, constructing large-scale biologically plausible computational models to explain detailed memory processes in these components, their interactions and the required control processes. The thesis is focused on constructing computational models to explain a few critical phenomena and mechanisms in working memory, observed in the Immediate Serial Recall task. The main constraining phenomena for the models are: the primacy effect, the recency effect, the phonological similarity effect in word lists but not in non-word lists, repetition coding by patterns, and position effects in transposition errors (e.g., an item is likely to be transposed with another item at the same position in another group). The modeling method is incremental: it first begins with a biologically plausible model for sequence encoding and retrieval based on the anatomy of the prefronto-basal ganglionic system. Phenomena that confirm this model include the primacy effect, the recency effect, similarity effects and the transposition gradient. This model is then extended with a specialized sequencing mechanism for phonological information, in order to explain the lack of phonoloigcal similarity effect in non-word lists. This Dual Representation model, to some extent, can also mitigate the difficulty of recalling repeated items, though it does not explain repetition encoding by patterns. The pattern encoding mechanism and the required binding process are discussed for a later model, which also uses binding to account for the positional effects, where position codes are considered to be temporarily bound to items. At last, it is discussed how the working memory models can be merged with a long-term memory component to transfer sequences stored in working memory into long-term memory. At last, limitations of the model are analyzed in the Implications and Discussion chapter. The analysis reveals a difficulty in the sequencing of items of different categories by lateral inhibition, because different categories of items are represented in different cortical areas. This result necessitates an additional subsystem that can encode category sequences, because the system needs to encode the category sequence to cue the retrieval of items. For example, a sequence like "Trees are plants" can be recalled better if it is accompanied by a category sequence "N V N". Due to the difficulty with repetitions of the basic cortico-basal ganglia sequencing mechanism, the category subsystem would work best if it is hierarchically organized, where each constituent does not contain…

▼ The thesis is made up of a number of studies involving long-range dependence (LRD), that is, a slow power-law decay in the temporal correlation of stochastic models. Such a phenomenon has been frequently observed in practice. The models with LRD often yield non-standard probabilistic and statistical results. The thesis includes in particular the following topics:
Multivariate limit theorems.
We consider a vector made of stationary sequences, some components of which have LRD, while the others do not. We show that the joint scaling limits of the vector exhibit an asymptotic independence property.
Non-central limit theorems.
We introduce new classes of stationary models with LRD through Volterra-type nonlinear filters of white noise. The scaling limits of the sum lead to a rich class of non-Gaussian stochastic processes defined by multiple stochastic integrals.
Limit theorems for quadratic forms.
We consider continuous-time quadratic forms involving continuous-time linear processes with LRD. We show that the scaling limit of such quadratic forms depends on both the strength of LRD and the decaying rate of the quadratic coefficient.
Behavior of the generalized Rosenblatt process.
The generalized Rosenblatt process arises from scaling limits under LRD. We study the behavior of this process as its two critical parameters approach the boundaries of the defining region.
Inference using self-normalization and resampling.
We introduce a procedure called "self-normalized block sampling" for the inference of the mean of stationary time series. It provides a unified approach to time series with or without LRD, as well as with or without heavy tails. The asymptotic validity of the procedure is established.

▼ Cognitive Event-Related Potential (ERP) recordings
have been used to study the neurophysiological correlates of
recognition
memory. Previous ERP research has demonstrated that on
tasks of recognition
memory, Old items elicit ERP responses that
are more positive in electrical amplitude than the ERP responses
elicited by New items, commonly referred to as ERP Old/New
positivity effects. ERP Old/New positivity effects have been used
to make inferences about cognitive processes mediating recognition
memory, such as the early frontal Old/New positivity effect that
has been associated with familiarity and the late parietal Old/New
positivity effect that has been associated with recollection. These
effects have been demonstrated different types of stimuli and on
different types of recognition
memory tasks. However, a systematic
comparison of ERP Old/New positivity effects across different
recognition
memory tasks is lacking, particularly with respect to
Remote
Long-term
memory. This thesis asked how ERP Old/New
positivity effects differ between tasks of Short-term, Recent
Long-term, and Remote
Long-term
memory tasks for faces. Experiment
1 simulated the condition of limited overt communication skills by
analyzing the brain responses to
memory stimuli, regardless of the
overt behavioural response from healthy, “honest” participants.
Experiment 2 examined the ERP responses of healthy participants
instructed to feign a
memory impairment. ERP Old/New positivity
effects similar to those described in the experimental ERP
literature were observed on the Short-term and Remote
Long-term
memory tasks in both Experiments 1 and 2. However, response
accuracy was lower than expected on the Recent
Long-term task
resulting in weak ERP results. A comparison of the ERP Old/New
responses between the Honest Response (Experiment 1) and the
Simulated
Memory Malingering (Experiment 2) groups found that
despite differing overt behavioural responses, the ERP Old/New
responses remained similar. The results demonstrate a similar
electrophysiological mechanism mediating Short-term, Recent
Long-term, and Remote
Long-term recognition
memory ERP responses,
despite the different neuroanatomical substrates that have been
proposed these different types of
memory. Although an improved
measure of Recent
Long-term
memory is needed, the results of this
thesis are promising and demonstrate that ERP recordings could
provide an objective instrument for measuring recognition
memory
functioning in clinical settings.

How the emotional valence of an experience affects memory accuracy has been investigated in three studies of public events (Bohn & Berntsen, 2007; Kensinger & Schacter, 2006; Levine & Bluck, 2004). These studies all found that individuals who evaluated an event positively remembered details less accurately, but felt greater confidence or vividness in their memories, than those who evaluated the event negatively. However, individuals who viewed an event positively likely differed in many ways from those who viewed that event negatively. The present study therefore investigated accuracy and vividness of long-term memory for two comparable public events, chosen so that those who experienced one event as positive likely experienced the other as negative, and vice versa. The events were the deciding games in the 2003 and 2004 Major League Baseball (MLB) American League Championship Series between the Yankees (2003 winners) and Red Sox (2004 winners). In 2008, 1563 fans who reported having attended, watched, or read about both games completed questionnaires that asked them to recognize details and indicate subjective memories about the games.Both between and within groups, fans remembered the positively valenced game (the one their team won) significantly more accurately than the negatively valenced game. Fans also reported more vividness and more rehearsal for the game their team won versus the game their team lost. Self-reported rehearsal mediated the effects of valence on accuracy, and partially mediated the effects of valence on vividness. While rehearsal led to accuracy in our study, in other situations factual inaccuracies may be rehearsed and that could lead to inaccurate memories. We conclude that valence of an event affects what gets rehearsed rather than the accuracy of recall. Positive events are more likely than negative events to be rehearsed, but that rehearsal could lead to either increased or decreased accuracy. Additionally, we investigated how age affects memory for the positive and negative events. The older adults were less accurate, and reported less vividness and rehearsal, than younger adults, but no differential positivity effect was found for older adults.

▼ Atkinson and Shiffrin's (1968) dual-store model of memory includes a structural memory store along with control processes conceptualized as a rehearsal buffer. I present a variant of Atkinson and Shiffrin's buffer model within a global memory framework that accounts for findings previously thought to be difficult for it to explain. This model assumes a limited capacity buffer where information is stored about items, along with information about associations between items and between items and the context in which they are studied. The strength of association between items and context is limited by the number of items simultaneously occupying the buffer. New findings that directly test the buffer assumptions are presented, including serial position effects, and conditional and first recall probabilities in immediate and delayed free recall, in a continuous distractor paradigm, and in experiments using list length manipulations of single item and paired item study lists. Overall, the model's predictions are supported by the data from these experiments, suggesting that control processes, conceptualized as a rehearsal buffer, are a necessary component of memory models.
