We think that the neurophysiological basis of long-term memory is confined to “neuroplasticity” or accumulation of newly synthesized molecules. But, when the creative (synthetic) period is finished (middle age), the neuronal network starts degeneration, as a physiological aging process. The question is if such deterioration bears somewhat positivity (biological justification) or not? From a technical mode of thinking, of course, it is possible. It does not exclude the classical mechanisms such as a “plus structure.” Even more, both agencies might be combined, and both based on the cycling (repetitive) presentation of information.
Among the many articles on brain and aging, here are some:
