Abstract

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to investigate the cerebral correlates of motor sequence memory consolidation. Participants were scanned while training on an implicit oculomotor sequence learning task and during a single testing session taking place 30 min, 5 hr, or 24 hr later. During training, responses observed in hippocampus and striatum were linearly related to the gain in performance observed overnight, but not over the day. Responses in both structures were significantly larger at 24 hr than at 30 min or 5 hr. Additionally, the competitive interaction observed between these structures during training became cooperative overnight. These results stress the importance of both hippocampus and striatum in procedural memory consolidation. Responses in these areas during training seem to condition the overnight memory processing that is associated with a change in their functional interactions. These results show that both structures interact during motor sequence consolidation to optimize subsequent behavior.

  • Human fMRI studies provide hints that consolidation of memories during sleep depends on hippocampal activation during prior learning.

    “Hints that consolidation of memories during sleep depend on hippocampal activation during prior learning have also been provided by human studies using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) (16,733,968).”

  • In adults, the level of skill performance at learning modulates sleep-dependent memory consolidation, with benefits from sleep most robust at intermediate performance levels.

    “In adults, the level of skill performance at learning has repeatedly been demonstrated to modulate sleep-dependent memory consolidation, whereby benefits from sleep appeared to be most robust with intermediate performance levels (16,297,679,1151).”

  • Particularly in initial training stages, explicit learning mechanisms involving prefrontal-hippocampal circuitry can be essential for skill acquisition, with parallel storing of procedural and hippocampus-dependent declarative aspects favoring interactions and competitions between memory systems, which can impair implicit task performance.

    “Particularly in the initial stages of training, contributions of explicit (i.e., conscious) learning mechanisms involving prefrontal-hippocampal circuitry can be essential for skill acquisition, with the parallel storing of procedural and hippocampus-dependent declarative aspects favoring interactions and competitions between the two memory systems (16,43,937,1042), which can result in an impaired”

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.
