Increased flanker task and forward digit span performance in caudate-nucleus-dependent response strategies
Aumont, Étienne; Arguin, Martin; Bohbot, Véronique; West, Gregory (Elsevier, 2019-06-13)One of two memory systems can be used to navigate in a new environment. Hippocampus-dependent spatial strategy consists of creating a cognitive map of an environment and caudate nucleus-dependent response strategy consists of memorizing a rigid sequence ... -
Spatial learners display enhanced oculomotor performance
