Working Memory of Auditory Localization [PDF]

Cerebral Cortex, 2000
To investigate brain mechanisms of sound location memory, we studied the distribution of brain activation with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in subjects performing an audiospatial n-back task with three memory load levels. Working memory processing of audiospatial information activated areas in the superior, middle and inferior frontal ...

Auditory and visual spatial working memory [PDF]

Memory & Cognition, 2006
A series of experiments compared short-term memory for object locations in the auditory and visual modalities. The stimulus materials consisted of sounds and pictures presented at different locations in space. Items were presented in pure- or mixed-modality lists of increasing length.

Auditory cortex supports verbal working memory capacity [PDF]

NeuroReport, 2020
AbstractWorking memory (WM) is a fundamental construct of human cognition. The neural basis of auditory WM is thought to reflect a distributed brain network consisting of canonical memory and central executive brain regions including frontal lobe, prefrontal areas, and hippocampus.

Auditory selective attention under working memory load [PDF]

Psychological Research, 2020
AbstractCan cognitive load enhance concentration on task-relevant information and help filter out distractors? Most of the prior research in the area of selective attention has focused on visual attention or cross-modal distraction and has yielded controversial results.

Training of Working Memory Impacts Neural Processing of Vocal Pitch Regulation [PDF]

, 2015
Working memory training can improve the performance of tasks that were not trained. Whether auditory-motor integration for voice control can benefit from working memory training, however, remains unclear.

Decoding auditory working memory content from EEG responses to auditory-cortical TMS. [PDF]

Brain Stimul
Working memory (WM), short term maintenance of information for goal directed behavior, is essential to human cognition. Identifying the neural mechanisms supporting WM is a focal point of neuroscientific research. One prominent theory hypothesizes that WM content is carried in "activity-silent" brain states involving short-term synaptic changes ...

Impulse perturbation reveals cross-modal access to sensory working memory through learned associations

NeuroImage, 2023
We investigated if learned associations between visual and auditory stimuli can afford full cross-modal access to working memory. Previous research using the impulse perturbation technique has shown that cross-modal access to working memory is one-sided;

A Brain System for Auditory Working Memory. [PDF]

J Neurosci, 2016
The brain basis for auditory working memory, the process of actively maintaining sounds in memory over short periods of time, is controversial. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging in human participants, we demonstrate that the maintenance of single tones in memory is associated with activation in auditory cortex.

Recollection and familiarity support auditory working memory in a manner analogous to visual working memory. [PDF]

Cognition
Prior work has suggested that visual working memory as measured in change detection tasks can be based on recollection, whereby participants consciously identify a specific feature of a stimulus that has changed, or on familiarity, whereby participants sense that a change has occurred but are unable to consciously access what has changed.

Decoding Spatial Versus Non-spatial Processing in Auditory Working Memory. [PDF]

Front Neurosci, 2021
ObjectiveResearch on visual working memory has shown that individual stimulus features are processed in both specialized sensory regions and higher cortical areas. Much less evidence exists for auditory working memory. Here, a main distinction has been proposed between the processing of spatial and non-spatial sound features.
