The neural bases of recollection and familiarity: Preliminary tests of the Aggleton–Brown mode
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 June 1999
Abstract
Aggleton & Brown suggest that whereas familiarity is computed in perirhinal cortex, the hippocampus contributes to recollection. This account raises issues about the definition of amnesia, clarifies confusion about dual-process models of recognition, and sits comfortably with accounts of hippocampal function from outside the amnesia literature. The model can – and should – be tested. Some preliminary data suggest that it may need changes.
