Neuroimaging of the amygdala and

declarative memory

  • If the amygdala is involved in the enhancement of memory

by emotion, then it should be possible to measure its activity

at some point in the process

  • Questions :
  • Does the amygdala act alone?
  • Is this just for unpleasant stimuli?
  • Is the amygdala involved in the enhancement of all types of

memory or just emotional memory?

What, exactly, does the amygdala do?

  • These studies show a correlation between amygdala activity at encoding and later memory, how might these be related?
  • Amygdala as salience detector and instigator
    • active during ambiguous situations
    • enhances output from various systems
  • These systems serve both bodily responses as well as cognitive representations (memory trace)

What does emotion do to memory in

amnesia?

  • Patients with mild to moderate amnesia were tested on memory for the same pictures as those used in studies with healthy students.
