内隐序列学习神经机制研究的新进展

Summary of Neural Mechanisms of Implicit Sequence Learning

行为研究表明,内隐序列学习的表征形式完全基于刺激,但神经成像却发现与内隐序列学习有关的大脑运动控制区域的激活,这些区域包括主运动皮层、前运动皮层、补充运动区和基底神经节。进一步的研究认为,内隐序列学习中大脑运动控制区的激活只是进一步反应的准备,对健忘症患者的研究发现,内侧颞叶区可能在内隐序列学习的高层联想上起着关键的作用。

Behavioral research has invested the format of the sequence learning representations are purely stimulus-based, but neuroimaging studies have emphasized brain areas involved with motor control:primary motor cortex,premotor cortex, supplementary motor areas,and the basal ganglia.Someone argued that activity in motor areas could reflect advanced response preparation.Recent experiments with amnesic patients suggest that medical temporal lobe may play a critical role in learning higher-order associations.
