Abstract

This article focuses on a study investigating how list length and time delay affect neural markers of visual recognition memory. Using electroencephalography (EEG), researchers identified distinct event-related potential (ERP) components associated with list length and serial position effects, specifically a parietal component sensitive to list length and a frontal component linked to primacy effects. The study’s delay-controlled design demonstrated that list-length effects persist independently of recency-related confounds, suggesting that list length and temporal factors influence recognition memory through separate mechanisms. These findings contribute to understanding the neural processes underlying episodic memory retrieval. [Extracted from the article]
