Meanings of semantic encoding in English

Conclusions: Providing a deep processing semantic encoding strategy significantly improved patients' recognition performance only.

Therefore, LIPC activation appears to be related to semantic encoding and not task difficulty.

Patients demonstrated impairment in recall, in recognition, in semantic encoding, and in frequency estimation.

These were compared with an analogous task involving retrieval of general semantic knowledge, as well as traditional binary self-referential and semantic encoding judgments.

The same LIPC area activated during semantic encoding showed decreased activation during repeated semantic encoding relative to initial semantic encoding of the same words.

Semantic encoding decisions are performed faster the second time words are presented.
