<p>Duff, M.C., & Kurczek, J. (2012, October). Referential processing places high demands on hippocampal declarative memory. <i>Poster presentation at the Society for the Neurobiology of Language Conference</i>, San Sebastian, Spain.</p><p>• In a preliminary study of referential processing in patients with bilateral hippocampal
damage and severe and selective declarative memory impairment we reported
disruptions; these patients produced fewer cohesive ties, the adequacy of their ties
were more often judged to be incomplete, and ratings of their local coherence were
consistently lower than comparison participants (Kurczek & Duff, 2011)
</p>
<p>• Here we extend this line of work by performing a more extensive examination of
discourse cohesion and coherence in patients with hippocampal amnesia across a
variety of narrative tasks </p>
