About: Kent Cochrane

An Entity of Type: animal, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Kent Cochrane (August 5, 1951 – March 27, 2014), also known as Patient K.C., was a widely studied Canadian memory disorder patient who has been used as a case study in over 20 neuropsychology papers over the span of 25 years. In 1981, Cochrane was involved in a motorcycle accident that left him with severe anterograde amnesia, as well as temporally graded retrograde amnesia. Like other amnesic patients (patient HM, for example), Cochrane had his semantic memory intact, but lacked episodic memory with respect to his entire past. As a case study, Cochrane has been linked to the breakdown of the single-memory single-locus hypothesis regarding amnesia, which states that an individual memory is localized to a single location in the brain.

  • Kent Cochrane (5 août 1951 – 27 mars 2014), également connu sous le nom de Patient K.C., était un patient canadien dont les troubles de la mémoire ont été largement étudiés, et qui a été utilisé comme sujet d'étude pour plus de 20 articles de neuropsychologie au cours des années 1980 à 2010. En 1981, K. Cochrane a été victime d'un accident de mobylette qui lui a laissé une amnésie antérograde sévère, ainsi qu'une amnésie rétrograde graduelle. Contrairement à d'autres patients amnésiques (le patient HM, par exemple), la mémoire sémantique de K. Cochrane était intacte, mais sa mémoire épisodique avait totalement disparu, pour l'ensemble de sa vie passée. En tant que sujet d'étude, K. Cochrane est lié à la réfutation de l'hypothèse de locus unique et de mémoire unique au sujet de l'amnésie, selon laquelle une mémoire individuelle est localisée à un endroit unique dans le cerveau.
