Abstract

Electrical brain stimulations (EBS) sometimes induce reminiscences, but it is largely unknown what type of memories they can trigger. We reviewed 80 years of literature on reminiscences induced by EBS and added our own database. We classified them according to modern conceptions of memory. We observed a surprisingly large variety of reminiscences covering all aspects of declarative memory. However, most were poorly detailed and only a few were episodic. This result does not support theories of a highly stable and detailed memory, as initially postulated, and still widely believed as true by the general public. Moreover, memory networks could only be activated by some of their nodes: 94.1% of EBS were temporal, although the parietal and frontal lobes, also involved in memory networks, were stimulated. The qualitative nature of memories largely depended on the site of stimulation: EBS to rhinal cortex mostly induced personal semantic reminiscences, while only hippocampal EBS induced episodic memories. This result supports the view that EBS can activate memory in predictable ways in humans.

  • The PFC displays ample anatomic connections to temporal lobe structures which, when stimulated, yield a wide range of often intense effects.

    “Furthermore, the PFC displays ample anatomic connections to temporal lobe structures which, when stimulated, yield a wide range of often intense effects (Selimbeyoglu and Parvizi, 2010;Curot et al., 2017).”

    The section labeled “Halgren” reports that electrical stimulation of temporal-lobe sites induced several kinds of memories and reminiscences, supporting the claim that stimulation can have varied effects. Our copy does not establish ample anatomical connections between the PFC and temporal-lobe structures, or that the effects are often intense; the cited discussion of cortical projections concerns the rhinal cortex, not specifically the PFC. Page numbers were not available in the indexed passages. (LLM, conf=0.84)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured

  • Blanke et al. (2000) concluded that iES of DLPFC and VLPFC could elicit immersive visual experiences similar to the episodic and dream-like experiences usually only reported following iES of the temporal lobe.

    “The authors concluded that iES of DLPFC and VLPFC could elicit immersive visual experiences similar to the episodic and dream-like experiences usually only reported following iES of the temporal lobe (Curot et al., 2017), although they acknowledged that the reported effects could be understood as perturbation of ongoing, conceptual thought processes rather than visual hallucinations per se.”

    From Does the Prefrontal Cortex Play an Essential Role in Consciousness? Insights from Intracranial Electrical Stimulation of the Human Brain (2021) · cites this paper as Curot et al., 2017

    The References list Blanke et al. (2000) as a study of complex visual hallucinations evoked by electrical stimulation of the prefrontal cortex. Our copy does not specify DLPFC and VLPFC or say that those experiences were immersive and similar to episodic or dream-like experiences following temporal-lobe stimulation. Section 3.6 instead says frontal-cortex stimulation in the review authors’ own centres never produced reminiscences. (LLM, conf=0.82)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured

  • EBS is usually considered to provide causal rather than just correlative evidence for a link between neural structures and phenomenal experience.

    “Furthermore, EBS is usually considered to provide causal rather than just correlative evidence for a link between neural structures and phenomenal experience, such as somatosensory, visual, auditory, vestibular, emotional, and autonomic perceptions (reviewed in Selimbeyoglu & Parvizi, 2010), or more complex sensations, like reminiscence of past experience, déjà‐vu, dreamy state and memory”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
