2006, Felicia Gould, Procedural Memory Functioning in HIV+ Midlife Women, PhD Thesis, page 4, HD and PD patients have also demonstrated procedural memory deficits attributable to frontostriatal dysfunction, although this cognitive domain has not received the same degree of study among HIV+ individuals.
Collectively, these results indicate that maturation of frontostriatal connectivity and function contributes to a developing capacity for cognitive control (i.e. adjusting behavior when predictions about the occurrence of events are violated).
