Sex differences and correlations in a virtual Morris water task, a virtual radial arm maze, and mental rotation
- R. Astur, Jennifer Tropp, S. Sava, R. T. Constable, E. Markus

- 5 May 2004
Different tasks are often used to assess spatial memory in humans compared to nonhumans. In order to bridge this paradigmatic gap, we used a within-subject design to test 61 undergraduates on three… Expand
Spatial information content and reliability of hippocampal CA1 neurons: Effects of visual input

- 1 August 1994
The effects of darkness on quantitative spatial firing characteristics of 235 hippocampal CA1 “complex spike” (CS) cells were studied in young and old Fischer‐344 rats during food‐motivated… Expand
Sex differences and estrous cycle changes in hippocampus-dependent fear conditioning
- E. Markus, M. Zecevic
- Psychology
- 1 September 1997
Male and naturally cycling female rats were tested in a fear conditioning paradigm that encompassed both hippocampus-dependent and -independent components. The females were both conditioned and… Expand
Age‐related deficits on the radial maze and in fear conditioning: Hippocampal processing and consolidation
- J. A. Oler, E. Markus
- Psychology, Medicine
- Hippocampus
- 1998
Young adult, middle‐aged, and old male F‐344 rats were assessed for their hippocampal ability. This was accomplished by examining the animals on two different paradigms, each incorporating a… Expand
Disambiguating the similar: The dentate gyrus and pattern separation
- B. Schmidt, D. Marrone, E. Markus
- Psychology, Medicine
- Behavioural Brain Research
- 1 January 2012
The human hippocampus supports the formation of episodic memory without confusing new memories with old ones. To accomplish this, the brain must disambiguate memories (i.e., accentuate the… Expand
Neocortical synaptogenesis, aging, and behavior: Lifespan development in the motor-sensory system of the rat
Little evidence presently exists on the development and aging of synaptic contacts and their relationship to behavior, particularly in nonvisual brain areas. To investigate this interrelationship,… Expand
Dissociation between Dorsal and Ventral Hippocampal Theta Oscillations during Decision-Making
- B. Schmidt, J. R. Hinman, +4 authors E. Markus
- Psychology, Medicine
- The Journal of Neuroscience
- 3 April 2013
Hippocampal theta oscillations are postulated to support mnemonic processes in humans and rodents. Theta oscillations facilitate encoding and spatial navigation, but to date, it has been difficult to… Expand
Conflict between place and response navigation strategies: effects on vicarious trial and error (VTE) behaviors.
- B. Schmidt, Andrew E. Papale, A. Redish, E. Markus
- Psychology, Medicine
- Learning & memory
- 1 March 2013
Navigation can be accomplished through multiple decision-making strategies, using different information-processing computations. A well-studied dichotomy in these decision-making strategies compares… Expand
Scopolamine induced deficits in a battery of rat cognitive tests: comparisons of sensitivity and specificity

- Medicine
- Behavioural pharmacology
- 1 May 2009
Despite much research, the cognitive effects of scopolamine hydrobromide, a cholinergic antagonist, remain controversial. Scopolamine affects multiple systems each of which can impact behavior. One… Expand
