Learning to Circumvent the Limitations of the Written-Self: The Rhetorical Benefits of Poetic Fragmentation and Internet ‘Catfishing’ by Meghan Punschke Nolan

“…Using research from multiple disciplines, including sociolinguistics, literary theory, and composition studies, this essay asserts that there is a great deal to be learned from the practices of two unlikely genres of written communication— Specifically, it draws a parallel between current internet culture and poetics, as the phenomenon of “catfishing” (or creating and portraying complex fictional identities through online profiles) parallels earlier modernist acts of fragmentation through poetry. …”

Microstructural Integrity of the Hippocampus During Childhood: Relations With Age and Source Memory by Daniel D. Callow, Daniel D. Callow, Kelsey L. Canada, Tracy Riggins, Tracy Riggins

“…This may be due in part to the fact that volume is a coarser measure of hippocampal composition. Studies have begun to examine measures of diffusion, which capture characteristics of the microstructure of the hippocampus, and thus may provide additional information about the integrity of the underlying neural circuits. …”
