The construction system of the brain
Open accessAbstract
The ability to construct a hypothetical situation in one's imagination prior to it actually occurring may afford greater accuracy in predicting its eventual outcome. The recollection of past experiences is also considered to be a reconstructive process with memories recreated from their component parts. Construction, therefore, plays a critical role in allowing us to plan for the future and remember the past. Conceptually, construction can be broken down into a number of constituent processes although little is known about their neural correlates. Moreover, it has been suggested that some of these processes may be shared by a number of other cognitive functions including spatial navigation and imagination. Recently, novel paradigms have been developed that allow for the isolation and characterization of these underlying processes and their associated neuroanatomy. Here, we selectively review this fast-growing literature and consider some implications for remembering the past and predicting the future.

“The ability of the hippocampus to support goal-directed learning and behaviour has been studied principally in spatial navigation (Buzsáki and Moser, 2013), but evidence suggests that this area also supports other advanced cognitive abilities that require prospection, such as imagination of fictive scenarios (Hassabis and Maguire, 2009).”

“Further, the DMN is likely to support some of the most stable inferences available to embodied–embedded persons, with major nodes allowing for egocentric perspective—i.e., providing a subjective point of view in generating world models with spatial, temporal, and causal coherence—integrated memory, and even the foundations of selfhood (Dennett, 1992; Hassabis and Maguire, 2009; Northoff, 2012;”

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.
