The creation and consolidation of a memory can rest on the
integration of any number of possibly disparate features and
contexts - colour, sound, emotion, arousal, context. How is it that
these bind together to form a coherent memory? What is the role of
binding in memory formation? What are the neural processes that
underlie binding? Do these binding processes change with age? This
book offers an unrivalled overview of one of the most debated
hotspots of modern memory research: binding. It contains 28
chapters on binding in different domains of memory, presenting
classic research from the field of cognitive neuroscience. It is
written by renowned scientists and leaders in the field who have
made fundamental contributions to the rapidly expanding field of
neurocognitive memory research. As well as presenting a
state-of-the-art account of recent views on binding and its
importance for remembering, it also includes a review of recent
publications in the area, of benefit to both students and active
researchers. More than just a survey, it supplies the reader with
an integrative view on binding in memory, fostering deep insights
not only into the processes and their determinants, but also into
the neural mechanisms enabling these processes. The content also
encompasses a wide range of binding-related topics, including
feature binding, the binding of items and contexts during encoding
and retrieval, the specific roles of familiarity and recollection,
as well as task- and especially age-related changes in these
processes. A major section is dedicated to in-depth analyses of
underlying neural mechanisms, focusing on both medial temporal and
prefrontal structures. Computational approaches are covered as
well. For all students and researchers in memory, the book will not
only enhance their understanding of binding, but will instigate
innovative and pioneering ideas for future research.
