On the neural level, tics are thought to be related to the disturbances of the cortico-basal ganglia-thalamo-cortical loops, which also play an important role in procedural learning. Several studies have investigated the acquisition of procedural information and the access to established procedural information in TS. Based on these, the notion of procedural hyperfunctioning, i.e., enhanced procedural learning, has been proposed. However, one neglected area is the retention of acquired procedural information, especially following a long-term offline period. Here, we investigated the 5-hour and 1-year consolidation of two aspects of procedural memory, namely serial-order and probability-based information. Nineteen children with TS between the ages of 10 and 15 as well as 19 typically developing gender- and age-matched controls were tested on a visuomotor four-choice reaction time task that enables the simultaneous assessment of the two aspects. They were retested on the same task 5 hours and 1 year later without any practice in the offline periods. Both groups successfully acquired and retained the probability-based information both when tested 5 hours and then 1 year later, with comparable performance between the TS and control groups. Children with TS did not acquire the serial-order information during the learning phase; hence, retention could not be reliably tested. Our study showed evidence for short-term and long-term retention of one aspect of procedural memory, namely probability-based information in TS, whereas learning of serial-order information might be impaired in this disorder.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fnhum.2021.715254","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,12]],"date-time":"2021-08-12T05:21:18Z","timestamp":1628745678000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Access to Procedural Memories After One Year: Evidence for Robust Memory Consolidation in Tourette Syndrome"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Eszter","family":"T\u00f3th-F\u00e1ber","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zsanett","family":"T\u00e1rnok","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"\u00c1d\u00e1m","family":"Tak\u00e1cs","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Karolina","family":"Janacsek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dezs\u0151","family":"N\u00e9meth","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"175","DOI":"10.1016\/j.tins.2006.01.001","article-title":"Recent advances in Tourette syndrome research.","volume":"29","author":"Albin","year":"2006","journal-title":"Trends Neurosci."},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"310","DOI":"10.1212\/01.wnl.0000076181.39162.fc","article-title":"Increased ventral striatal monoaminergic innervation in Tourette syndrome.","volume":"61","author":"Albin","year":"2003","journal-title":"Neurology"},{"key":"B3","year":"2013","journal-title":"Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>)."},{"key":"B4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"2029","DOI":"10.1093\/brain\/awl050","article-title":"Neural correlates of tic generation in Tourette syndrome: an event-related functional MRI study.","volume":"129","author":"Bohlhalter","year":"2006","journal-title":"Brain"},{"key":"B5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"247","DOI":"10.1037\/0894-4105.17.2.247","article-title":"Executive function, memory, and learning in Tourette\u2019s syndrome.","volume":"17","author":"Channon","year":"2003","journal-title":"Neuropsychology"},{"key":"B6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"187","DOI":"10.1016\/j.conb.2017.08.009","article-title":"Premonitory urges and tics in Tourette syndrome: computational mechanisms and neural correlates.","volume":"46","author":"Concei\u00e7\u00e3o","year":"2017","journal-title":"Curr.
