For our march 5th meeting we will read and discuss the paper by Poldrack and Foerde (2008),

Poldrack, R., &  Foerde, K.  (2008). Category learning and the memory systems debate. Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 32, 197-205.

This paper is available on line, but email me if you need a copy. Although this paper is clearly in favour of Multiple memory systems, I’m hoping we get some idea of what the counter arguments might be, and how the memory systems literature informs category learning in general.

February 5 :  Zeithamova et al., 2008  and Maddox et al. (2008)

February 12: Davis et al. (in press)

February 19: No meeting L.O.V.E
