ワシントン大学セントルイス校の研究者は、日常生活の出来事がどのように意識を形成し、記憶を構築するかを研究しています。心理学・脳科学部のジェフ・ザックス教授は、コンピューターモデルを用いて、日常的なタスクのビデオを分析し、次に起こることを予測する際に、モデルが不確実性に直面するとリセットしてシーンを再評価し、理解度が向上することを発見しました。また、マーベリック・スミス博士らの研究では、出来事の開始と終了を識別する能力が個人差を持ち、その差が後の記憶量に強く影響することが示されています。これらの研究は、出来事の分割を支援することで記憶力を向上させる介入策の開発に繋がる可能性があります。

主な出来事:人生の情景がどのように意識を形成し、記憶を構築するか(The main events: How scenes from life shape consciousness, build memories)

Abstract

Humans form sequences of event models—representations of the current situation—to predict how activity will unfold. Multiple mechanisms have been proposed for how the cognitive system determines when to segment the stream of behavior and switch from one active event model to another. Here, we constructed a computational model that learns knowledge about event classes (event schemas), by combining recurrent neural networks for short-term dynamics with Bayesian inference over event classes for event-to-event transitions. This architecture represents event schemas and uses them to construct a series of event models. This architecture was trained on one pass through 18 h of naturalistic human activities. Another 3.5 h of activities were used to test each variant for agreement with human segmentation and categorization. The architecture was able to learn to predict human activity, and it developed segmentation and categorization approaching human-like performance. We then compared two variants of this architecture designed to better emulate human event segmentation: one transitioned when the active event model produced high uncertainty in its prediction and the other transitioned when the active event model produced a large prediction error. The two variants learned to segment and categorize events, and the prediction uncertainty variant provided a somewhat closer match to human segmentation and categorization—despite being given no feedback about segmentation or categorization. These results suggest that event model transitioning based on prediction uncertainty or prediction error can reproduce two important features of human event comprehension.

Abstract

People remember events as a series of interconnected actions organized in time. The ability to perceive, represent and remember events is essential to understanding the world, adapting to changing circumstances and surviving. Extensive research has been conducted to understand memory representations of simple, static ‘events’ that often lack real-world contextual meaning. Although this work lays the foundation of current theories of cognition, it is disconnected from how memory functions in the real world. In this Review, we discuss how events are perceived from a continuous stream of experience, and how perceived events organize memory for real-world experiences. Further, we discuss how cognitive ageing, mental health conditions and neurodegenerative diseases impact event memory. We provide a cohesive overview of event memory for naturalistic stimuli and suggest future directions for the field.
