Demographic, neuroanatomical, and neuropsychological characteristics of participants with hippocampal amnesia and brain-damaged comparisons; Note: Hd.=Handedness. Ed.=years of completed education. HSE=Herpes Simplex Encephalitis. HC=hippocampus. +MTL=damage extending into the greater medial temporal lobes. N/A=no available data. Volumetric data are z-scores as measured through high resolution volumetric MRI and compared to a matched healthy comparison group (Allen, Tranel, Bruss, & Damasio, 2006; Buchanan et al., 2005). WMS-III GMI=Wechsler Memory Scale–III General Memory Index. WAIS-III FSIQ=Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale–III Full Scale Intelligence Quotient. AVLT = Auditory Verbal Learning Test, 15 min delay score; CFT = Complex Figure Test, recall score; BNT=Boston Naming Test. TT=Token Test. Bolded scores are impaired as defined as 2 or more standard deviations below normative data.
