This article reviews recent studies of memory systems in humans and nonhuman primates. Three major conclusions from recent work are that (i) the capacity for nondeclarative (nonconscious) learning can now be studied in a broad array of tasks that assess classification learning, perceptuomotor skill learning, artificial grammar learning, and prototype abstraction; (ii) cortical areas adjacent to the hippocampal formation, including entorhinal, perirhinal, and parahippocampal cortices, are an essential part of the medial temporal lobe memory system that supports declarative (conscious) memory; and (iii) in humans, bilateral damage limited to the hippocampal formation is nevertheless sufficient to produce severe anterograde amnesia and temporally graded retrograde amnesia covering as much as 25 years.
本文综述了近期关于人类和非人类灵长类动物记忆系统的研究。近期研究得出的三个主要结论是:(i)现在可以在一系列评估分类学习、感知运动技能学习、人工语法学习和原型抽象的任务中研究非陈述性(无意识)学习能力;(ii)海马结构附近的皮质区域,包括内嗅皮质、嗅周皮质和海马旁皮质,是支持陈述性(有意识)记忆的内侧颞叶记忆系统的重要组成部分;(iii)在人类中,仅局限于海马结构的双侧损伤仍足以导致严重的顺行性遗忘和长达25年的时间梯度逆行性遗忘。
