Auditory Short-Term Memory Behaves Like Visual Short-Term Memory

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2007
Are the information processing steps that support short-term sensory memory common to all the senses? Systematic, psychophysical comparison requires identical experimental paradigms and comparable stimuli, which can be challenging to obtain across modalities.

Can short-term memory be trained? [PDF]

open access: yesMemory & Cognition, 2019
2 Is the capacity of short-term memory fixed or does it improve with practice? It is already known that training on complex working memory tasks is more likely to transfer to untrained tasks with similar properties, but this approach has not been extended to the more basic short-term memory system responsible for verbal serial recall.

Interference with visual short-term memory*

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 1990
Working memory (Baddeley and Hitch 1974) incorporates the notion of a visuo-spatial sketch pad; a mechanism thought to be specialized for short-term storage of visuo-spatial material. However, the nature and characteristics of this hypothesized mechanism are as yet unclear.

The Evolution of Primate Short-Term Memory

open access: yesAnimal Behavior and Cognition, 2020
Short-term memory is implicated in a range of cognitive abilities and is critical for understanding primate cognitive evolution. To investigate the effects of phylogeny, ecology and sociality on short-term memory, we tested the largest and most diverse primate sample to date (421 non-human primates across 41 species) in an experimental delayed-response

Short-Term Memory Resonances [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
A cascading neural loop model is proposed to address the question of how to represent continuous experience. A prediction of the model is that short-term memory decay should exhibit a set of bumps or dips superimposed on a smooth exponential base. The prediction was tested using a Brown- Peterson distractor task, with distractor intervals from 1 to 24 ...

The demise of short-term memory

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 1982
Abstract The first wave of modern research on short-term memory was preoccupied with its existence as a valid system of memory. One subsequent development has been the application of the short-term/ long-term distinction to the study of individual and subject-population differences (aging, amnesia, and so on).

Physiology of short-term verbal memory [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
These studies document a series of brain events accompanying short-term memory functions. For auditory verbal material the sequence involves at least two different sites within auditory cortex subserving sensory and cognitive processes of memorization.

Transcription: A Mechanism for Short-Term Memory [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2008
Yeast growing for a considerable time in glucose 'remember' a previous exposure to galactose, the inducer of its galactose-utilization (GAL) genes. This memory is conveyed by a cytoplasmically transmitted galactokinase working as a signal transducer.

Short term memory for tactile stimuli

open access: yesBrain Research, 2008
Research has shown that unreported information stored in rapidly decaying visual representations may be accessed more accurately using partial report than using full report procedures (e.g., [Sperling, G., 1960. The information available in brief visual presentations. Psychological Monographs, 74, 1-29.]).
