“…If different ERP measures are predictive of putatively different memory processes, there should be unique correlations between the behavioral and ERP measures of each memory process. Recently, several studies have focused on correlating ERPs with individual differences in recognition memory performance (Amico et al, 2015;Angel et al, 2010;Chen et al, 2014;MacLeod and Donaldson, 2017), but these studies have not revealed a clear picture. Angel et al (2010)correlated overall recognition memory performance (corrected recognition rate) with the magnitude of the parietal old-new effect, but this study was performed on a small sample (14 participants), and it focused only on the parietal old-new effect within an a priori time widow.…”

“…Whereas the above studies focused specifically on previously identified ERP old-new effects, Amico et al (2015)used data-driven non-parametric analyses to characterize individual differences in overall recognition performance (Hit and FA rates, the sensitivity index d', the decision criterion c, and the mean RT for Hit trials). However, this study had a relatively small sample size (18 participants) and did not attempt to separately estimate familiarity and recollection.…”

“…Chen et al (2014) correlated FN400 (mid-frontal old-new effect) magnitudes with recognition performance in a large sample (64 participants), but this study used only overall recognition discriminability (d′) and response time as behavioral indices of memory performance, which does not distinguish recollection from familiarity. Whereas the above studies focused specifically on previously identified ERP old-new effects, Amico et al (2015) used data-driven non-parametric analyses to characterize individual differences in overall recognition performance (Hit and FA rates, the sensitivity index d’, the decision criterion c, and the mean RT for Hit trials).

Our everyday memories can vary in terms of accuracy and phenomenology. One theoretical account that can help understand how to categorize these differences delineates between memories that are remembered versus familiar. This difference largely hinges on whether the memories contain information about both an item itself as well as associated details (Remember) versus those that are devoid of these associated contextual details (Familiar). This distinction has been supported by computational modeling of behavior, studies in patients, and neuroimaging work including differences both in electrophysiological and functional magnetic resonance imaging. Yet, compelling convergent evidence directly linking individual differences in estimates of Recollection and Familiarity, the mathematical estimates of differences in Remember versus Familiar judgments, with their concomitant electrophysiological signatures is lacking. The present study measured memory responses to a recognition memory task while participants underwent simultaneous electrophysiological recordings of brain activity. Non-parametric cluster-based permutation analyses revealed selective associations between electrophysiological signatures ofFamiliarity and Recollection with their respective behavioral estimates. These results support the idea that Recollection and Familiarity are distinct phenomena and is the first to relate individual differences in both Recollection and Familiarity to electrophysiological signatures.

“…Given that viewpoint manipulation has been reported to depend on the integrity of the medial temporal lobe ( King et al, 2002 ; Lambrey et al, 2008 ), spatial recognition tasks could be appropriate paradigms to study the electrophysiological and neural features of allocentric spatial memory performance. Note that some previous studies used behavioral tasks demanding participants to decide about the position of an object or tray of objects on a blank background ( Lithfous et al, 2014 ; Amico et al, 2015 ; Chueh et al, 2017 ), which could not be considered properly allocentric.…”

Human spatial memory research has significantly progressed since the development of computerized tasks, with many studies examining sex-related performances. However, few studies explore the underlying electrophysiological correlates according to sex. In this study event-related potentials were compared between male and female participants during the performance of an allocentric spatial recognition task. Twenty-nine university students took part in the research. Results showed that while general performance was similar in both sexes, the brain of males and females displayed a differential activation. Males showed increased N200 modulation than females in the three phases of memory process (encoding, maintenance, and retrieval). Meanwhile females showed increased activation of P300 in the three phases of memory process compared to males. In addition, females exhibited more negative slow wave (NSW) activity during the encoding phase. These differences are discussed in terms of attentional control and the allocation of attentional resources during spatial processing. Our findings demonstrate that sex modulates the resources recruited to performed this spatial task.
