Long-term potentiation: Does it deserve attention?
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 20 (4):625-626 (1997)
| Abstract | Shors & Matzel's target article is a thought-provoking attempt to reconceptualise long-term potentiation as an attentional or arousal mechanism rather than a memory storage mechanism. This is incompatible with the facts of the neurobiology of attention and of the behavioural neurophysiological properties of hippocampal neurons. | |||||||||
