Abstract:It is believed that memorization of the meaning of new words occurs due to associative learning. For example, it may be matching of a word to the corresponding motor act. Synaptic plasticity in the brain develops on condition that activity of cell ensembles representing the associated events coincides in time – however, in reality, during the development of such associations, a significant time gap between the associated events is likely, which compromises necessary conditions for synaptic plasticity. We hypot… Show more
