The causal role of auditory cortex in auditory working memory. [PDF]
Elife, 2021 Working memory (WM), the ability to actively hold information in memory over a delay period of seconds, is a fundamental constituent of cognition. Delay-period activity in sensory cortices has been observed in WM tasks, but whether and when the activity ...

Dynamics of auditory working memory. [PDF]
Front Psychol, 2015 Working memory denotes the ability to retain stimuli in mind that are no longer physically present and to perform mental operations on them. Electro- and magnetoencephalography allow investigating the short-term maintenance of acoustic stimuli at a high ...

Post-training Load-Related Changes of Auditory Working Memory - An EEG Study. [PDF]
Front Hum Neurosci, 2020 Working memory (WM) refers to the temporary retention and manipulation of information, and its capacity is highly susceptible to training. Yet, the neural mechanisms that allow for increased performance under demanding conditions are not fully understood.

Basic Measures of Auditory Perception in Children: No Evidence for Mediation by Auditory Working Memory Capacity. [PDF]
Front Hum Neurosci, 2020 Immature auditory perception in children has generally been ascribed to deficiencies in cognitive factors, such as working memory and inattention. This notion appears to be commonly accepted for all children despite limited empirical evidence.

Low intensity white noise improves performance in auditory working memory task: An fMRI study. [PDF]
Heliyon, 2019 Research suggests that white noise may facilitate auditory working memory performance via stochastic resonance. Stochastic resonance is quantified by plotting cognitive performance as a function of noise intensity.

Auditory and cognitive performance in elderly musicians and nonmusicians [PDF]
, 2017 Musicians represent a model for examining brain and behavioral plasticity in terms of cognitive and auditory profile, but few studies have investigated whether elderly musicians have better auditory and cognitive abilities than nonmusicians.
