“The Seven Sins of Memory!”
2003 ， Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences
We examine the relation between memory and self by considering errors of memory. We draw on the idea that memoryrs imperfections can be classified into seven basic categories or 3sins. Three of the sins concern different types of forgetting (transience, absent mindedness, and blocking), three concern different types of distortion (misattribution, sug gestibility, and bias), and one concerns intrusive memories (persistence). We focus in particular on two of the distortion-related sins, misattribution and bias. By describing cognitive, neuropsychological, and neuroimaging studies that illuminate these memory sins, we consider how they might bear on the relation between memory and self.

“Dissociable medial prefrontal contributions to judgments of similar and dissimilar others”
2006 ， Neuron
Human social interaction requires the recognition that other people are governed by the same types of mental states—beliefs, desires, intentions—that guide one's own behavior. We used functional neuroimaging to examine how perceivers make mental state inferences when such self-other overlap can be assumed (when the other is similar to oneself) and when it cannot (when the other is dissimilar from oneself). We observed a double dissociation such that mentalizing about a similar other engaged a region of ventral mPFC linked to self-referential thought, whereas mentalizing about a dissimilar other engaged a more dorsal subregion of mPFC. The overlap between judgments of self and similar others suggests the plausibility of “simulation” accounts of social cognition, which posit that perceivers can use knowledge about themselves to infer the mental states of others.

“Multiple routes to memory: Distinct medial temporal lobe processes build item and source memories”
2003 ， Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
A central function of memory is to permit an organism to distinguish between stimuli that have been previously encountered and those that are novel. Although the medial temporal lobe (which includes the hippocampus and surrounding perirhinal, parahippocampal, and entorhinal cortices) is known to be crucial for recognition memory, controversy remains regarding how the specific subregions within the medial temporal lobe contribute to recognition. We used event-related functional MRI to examine the relation between activation in distinct medial temporal lobe subregions during memory formation and the ability (i) to later recognize an item as previously encountered (item recognition) and (ii) to later recollect specific contextual details about the prior encounter (source recollection). Encoding activation in hippocampus and in posterior parahippocampal cortex predicted later source recollection, but was uncorrelated with item recognition. In contrast, encoding activation in perirhinal cortex predicted later item recognition, but not subsequent source recollection. These outcomes suggest that the subregions within the medial temporal lobe subserve distinct, but complementary, learning mechanisms.
