Sentence examples for unsuccessful memory from inspiring English sources
Sub-optimal levels of hippocampal activity are commonly attributed to unsuccessful memory formation, whereas the supra-optimal levels of hippocampal activity related to unsuccessful memory formation have been rarely studied.
In humans, similar coupling has been reported with intracranial recordings in the medial temporal lobe during successful vs. unsuccessful memory performance [9], [12].

Items are retrospectively classified as remembered or forgotten (further categorizations may also be made), and activity that predicts successful or unsuccessful memory formation is identified.
We interpret our findings of greater RATN theta phase alignment during successful than unsuccessful memory formation, and its correlation with CFC during successful encoding, as compatible with the suggestion that memory-related changes occur within the RATN itself.

To further investigate whether the correlation patterns identified in a main effect of memory-related region (hippocampus and PHC) were observed in the unsuccessful encoding of IWS memories (i.e., IO memories), we compared hippocampal-related correlations with PHC-related correlations in the same ROIs during IO.
However, these patterns of correlations were not significant during the unsuccessful encoding of IWS memories (i.e., IO memories).
