Recognition Memory for Single Items and for Associations Is Similarly Impaired Following Damage to the Hippocampal Region
Craig E. ... It has been suggested that the hippocampus is essential for creating such associations but is not involved, or is much less involved, in memory for single items. In Experiment 1, we tested controls and amnesic patients with bilateral lesions thought to be limited primarily to the hippocampal region in both single-item and associative recognition memory tasks. In the single-item task, a conventional recognition memory task was administered in which participants studied either houses or faces and were tested for their ability to recognize the individual items. ... These results are consistent with the idea that the hippocampus is similarly involved in single-item and associative memory. ... 41302
Hippocampal Damage and Exploratory Preferences in Rats: Memory for Objects, Places, and Contexts
Dave G. ... Rats also show an exploratory preference for objects in locations where they have not previously encountered objects (an index of place memory) and for familiar objects in contexts different from those in which the objects were originally encountered (an index of context memory).
