[Echo reading and stuttering].

Abstract

Echo-reading is a practical therapeutic tool which has been proposed for use in stuttering, most especially when the functions of rhythm and association are disrupted in stuttered speech. After a period of preparation in which the mechanical work involved in speech is integrated, it is proposed that there should follow a period of listening and association, which serves to re-establish the spoken word with its meaning and expressivity. The subject undergoes rehabilitation in a living language which is correlated with the imagination, and with that Other quality which always forms a part of speech.

How social perception can automatically influence behavior.

Do we always know the reasons for our actions? Or is our behavior sometimes unknowingly and unintentionally influenced by what we have recently perceived? It has been traditionally assumed that the automatic influence of knowledge in memory is limited to people's interpretation of the world, and stops short of shaping their actual behavior. Researchers in experimental social psychology have begun to challenge this assumption by documenting how people's behaviors can be unknowingly influenced by knowledge that is incidentally activated in memory during social perception. We review findings that suggest that the social knowledge that is incidentally activated while reading words or imagining events subsequently affects participants' behaviors across a range of ostensibly unrelated domains.

Associative memory by recurrent neural networks with delay elements.

The synapses of real neural systems seem to have delays. Therefore, it is worthwhile to analyze associative memory models with delayed synapses. Thus, a sequential associative memory model with delayed synapses is discussed, where a discrete synchronous updating rule and a correlation learning rule are employed. Its dynamic properties are analyzed by the statistical neurodynamics. In this paper, we first re-derive the Yanai-Kim theory, which involves macrodynamical equations for the dynamics of the network with serial delay elements. Since their theory needs a computational complexity of O(L4t) to obtain the macroscopic state at time step t where L is the length of delay, it is intractable to discuss the macroscopic properties for a large L limit. Thus, we derive steady state equations using the discrete Fourier transformation, where the computational complexity does not formally depend on L. We show that the storage capacity alphaC is in proportion to the delay length L with a large L limit, and the proportion constant is 0.195, i.e. alphaC=0.195L. These results are supported by computer simulations.

The late posterior negativity in ERP studies of episodic memory: action monitoring and retrieval of attribute conjunctions.

The focus of the present paper is a late posterior negative slow wave (LPN) that has frequently been reported in event-related potential (ERP) studies of memory. An overview of these studies suggests that two broad classes of experimental conditions tend to elicit this component: (a) item recognition tasks associated with enhanced action monitoring demands arising from response conflict and (b) memory tasks that require the binding of items with contextual information specifying the study episode. A combined stimulus- and response-locked analysis of data from two studies mapping onto these classes allowed a temporal and functional decomposition of the LPN. While only the LPN observed in the item recognition task could be attributed to the involvement of a posteriorly distributed response-locked error-related negativity (or error negativity; ERN/Ne) occurring immediately after the response, the source-memory task was associated with a stimulus-locked negative slow wave occurring prior and during response execution that was evident when data were matched for response latencies. We argue that the presence of the former reflects action monitoring due to high levels of response conflict, whereas the latter reflects retrieval processes that may act to reconstruct the prior study episode when task-relevant attribute conjunctions are not readily recovered or need continued evaluation.
