|
Penfield
|
open brain surgury to treat epilepsy by stimulating the temporal lope with electrical. By stimulating the temporal lobe the patient is capable of retrieving memories (not movement or sensation).
|
|
H.M. study
|
epileptic patient that had about 8 cm of his brain (the medial temporal lobe) was removed from both hemispehre.
|
|
H.M. effects
|
remembered childhood, had working memory, could learn new tasks (procedural memories), ability to form new declarative memories was severely impaired (anterograde amnesia)
|
|
What happened with H.M.?
|
b/c they took out the Hippocampus
|
|
Delayed non-match to sample (DNMS) test
|
show monkey an object and the object covers a hole. There will be food in the holes. The food is never in the object that it knows. The monkey will need to choose the nonsample object.
|
|
information flow through the medial temporal lobe
|
cortical association areas --> Parahippocampal and rhinal cortical areas --> hippocampus --> (fornix) Thalamus, hypothalamus
|
