Q10. Early psychologists such as William James (1890) stated long ago that ‘we cannot deny that an object once attended
to will remain in the memory, while one inattentively allowed to pass will leave no traces behind’. More recently,
leading neuroscientists such as Eric Kandel have stated that one of the most important problems for 21stcentury
neuroscience is to understand how attention regulates the processes that stabilize experiential memories (Kandel,
2006).
